A Windows XP/wSP1 is needed to create a BartPE CD.

My installation disk is a Toshiba Recovery and Application/Drivers DVD
Satellite M50/M55 series.

How can I check this disk, to see if it has already SP1 on it?

Thanks in advance, Gerhard

That doesn't sound like a Windows Installation Disk at all, most likely
is what it says it is "a Recovery Disk" and that is all. Most computers
today do not come with installation disks instead they come and image of
the installation. You might consider calling Toshiba to see how you can
get a Windows XP disk. You can always make a copy from a friend, the
media is not what makes it legal or illegal but the license number that
should be on a sticker on your pc.

Unfortunately, as noted in other replies, you can't use this CD this way.
It contains a compress image of an install, and does not rely on the XP
installer.

So, it really doesn't matter whether it has SP1 or not.
