XP? With thanks, Kit

Hi Kit,

To what kind of backup disc are you referring? A copy of your Windows XP
install disc, or a backup of the information on your computer?

Hi,

You don't really need one as the WinXP CD is bootable. To make a dos boot
floppy, just right click the A drive in Windows Explorer and choose format,
the option to make one will be there. This is only useful for flashing and
systems using FAT32.

For an NTFS system, you can create set of boot floppies from these links:
