| 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. |
