Default Clean Install Windows ME

I am getting so frustrated. I have the full version of
windows 95 on desk, all 24 disks the Windowsd 95 setup
boot disk, 22 disks of Windows 95 and USB Update disk. I
bought a compaq computer with windows 98se and had so many
error problems I decided to upgrade to ME. Bought the
upgrade which states Windows 95 is acceptable. The
problem is after a couple years the disk drive became so
cluttered and had so many blue screens and dll errors and
kernel 32 errors decided it was time to wipe the slate
clean. Formated my hard drive, put in windows me key and
was asked for the qualifying product. Put in disks 1, 2
3, 4 10, 11, 12 (I don't remember all the exact numbers
but seemed like was at least half of the disks I have) etc
etc as asked and was told could find no qualfying
product. Now I can load Windows 95 completely and will go
through without a hitch. Or I can use the restore disks
which puts a lot of garbage I don't want on my hard
drive. That takes hours (especially the windows 95)that I
shouldn't have to put in because I've followed all the
rules. I don't even want to mention what that Windows 95
disk system cost me, so the hassle just burns my
biscuits. What is the solution? Thanks, mar
