Is there a way to make an Emergency Boot Disk for Windows XP? (Didn't find

Appreciate instructions. Very new to XP.

The Windows XP CD itself is bootable and is a Startup Disk.
It has all the necessary tools to repair XP in the event of an
unlikely failure. However, you can make your own bootable
floppy disk if you so desire:
