Single Bootable CD from 3 CDs

[Guest]

Folks:


My LapTop came with 3 CDs containing the winXP Operating System & a bunch of
extra software. This LapTop is currently down due to a faulty cooling
system.
Is there any software or technique that I can use to separate the winXP
Operating System from all the trial software and hopefully get the winXP
Operating System on a single CD ?
Maybe it is better to ask how to create a SINGLE bootable CD from the 3
original CDs that came with the LapTop.



Thanks,
JoJo

Usually not, although you might try isobuster on those images (which is what
is on the recovery disks).

Otherwise install from the recovery disks. Remove all the OEM garbage you
don't want and set up your computer perfectly. Purchase an external hard
drive and Acronis True Image. TI also does incremental backups. Now image
your perfect, OEM garbage-free computer and store the image on the external
hard drive.
