Loading a minimized WinXP

[il barbi]

I've generated a reduced version of my WinXP by shrinking it with nLite and
now I've got an iso image of it - but how can I load it on the HD replacing
the current WinXP? I think I need a bootable CD with a suitable utility.
Don't tell me to use BartPE, I'd like something ready made

If you did not make your CD bootable - well - you missed a step or two (or
have not finished) the process of creating a customize Windows XP CD.

IMO you're in over your head. You need something that
will provide step by step instructions to do what you
want, and it's rather complex.

ok I realized that the CD created from iso image is bootable and lets me
format the HD and load the OS on it
