I am hoping Winclone will work. But, to be safe I did the XP Back-up
Utility and then found out at the end that I needed a floppy.

Are you saying that if I have to do a fresh install of XP (if Winclone
fails) then I can install XP and then Restore with the XP Back-up
Utility AND I DO NOT NEED A FLOPPY?

1. So long as your hardware (BIOS) pemits you to boot
from a CD drive, you can perform INSTAL or RESTORE
without a floppy. (When booting a PC with no Operating
System installed, it does not matter from which drive the
OS comes, so long as it can be enabled.)

2. We would expect a backup routine that includes writing
anything to a floppy is NOT configured to prepare a bootable CD.
