Obtaining Windows XP Setup Boot Disks
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;310994&Product=winxp
NOTE:
If you are planning to use the Windows XP setup disks,
make sure you downloaded the correct set of setup disks.
If your have a Windows XP CD with SP1, you need to download
the setup disks for use with the Windows XP SP1 installation CD.
If your Windows XP installation CD does not include SP1,
use the setup disks for the "original release" of Windows XP.

| Here is the scenario. I've got a pc in which the bios doesn't seem to recognize the cdrom as a cdrom.
Hence.. I can't boot from a cd. I know in windows 2000 you could create 4 boot disks from makeboot.exe and
start the OS install that way. Does any such beast exist for XP?
