You're probably wanting to use the Recovery Console so you can run chkdsk,
then, and you can use *any* bootable XP CD for this.
It doesn't matter if it's Home or Pro, OEM or retail, full install or
upgrade. It doesn't install, so file and install key mismatches don't
matter at all.
You may be able to get to, or install, the Recovery Console from the
diskettes, but it's rather a pain and slow. If you can find or borrow
any
XP CD, that's much preferred.

Unfortunately you can't use a single zip disk for this, you have to use
the
six floppies. IIRC, you download the one file, run it, and it asks for
six
diskettes in sequence.
I notice that in another post, there's a link to creating a single boot
diskette. Unfortunately, this often will not work, because that page
describes a disk that can't access NTFS drives. Any drive over 40 gig is
almost certainly NTFS.
