I have 2 XP Pro computers. One with SP-1 has gotten stuck in a boot up loop
due to a user profile problem. The other has the SP2 upgrade. Both computers were built my the same person (whom I can't reach right now) and came with XP Pro installed but no manual or CDs. My question is can I make a boot CD from my working system which has Service Pack 2 that will work to boot the other system ? How do I do this? Thanks, Walt |

Hi,
No, WinXP doesn't provide for making a boot CD. You can get the boot floppy set here: Home edition: [url down] Professional edition: [url down] After downloading, execute the file and it will create a 6 disk boot floppy set. You can boot the system with these for a limited version of the Recovery Console. My question to you is what you are planning to do with the system once booted? |
