| XP boot disk? I had XP corruption somehow and the PC would not boot. I took it to technicians who did a XP repair and said that you can make a boot disk for XP. Is that true. is there a way to boot the PC into XP from a CD disk? |

Yup. Got one myself (also updated the Windows XP disc with SP2) so that it installs SP2 straight away...you don't need to install XP, then install SP2. http://old.bink.nu/xpbootcd/ and http://www.theeldergeek.com/slipstreamed_xpsp2_cd.htm |
