Windows XP Recovery Console

I'm trying to install Recovery Console as a boot option on Windows XP
Home Edition using the original XP disk I got with the system. Since
original istallation, the XP OS on my hard drive has been modified with
various patches and service packs.
When I Run: D:\i386\winnt32.exe /cmdcons I get this Windows Setup error:
"Setup cannot continue because the version of Windows on your computer
is newer than the version on the CD."

Any ideas on options?

Problem solved. The solution is to create a slipstreamed version of
Windows XP containing SP2. Use nLite to create the new CD.
