Answer 1

If you have only installed some parts of dask you may also need to install xgboost separately to anaconda

conda install -c conda-forge dask-xgboost

Answer 2

Actually, it seems you need to install other parts like dask-xgboost later. Even if you have already installed dask["complete"] and dask-ml .

Besides conda you can do it by ```pip`` also.

pip install dask-xgboost
