Make sure to only download the correct setup disks for
the particular Windows XP CD you have.

Hi,

www.bootdisk.com

A DOS boot disk has limited usage in an XP system, as it does not support
reading the NTFS file system. As the WinXP CD is bootable, there is no
reason to use a startup floppy to load it. If your system is of sufficient
age that it does not support booting from a CD, then it likely will not
perform well under WinXP anyways.
