    Making a boot CD for Windows XP?

    I've always had a floppy boot disk in the past, but my super-dooper new computer doesn't have a floppy drive.

    So how would I go about making a boot CD for Windowns XP should I ever have a problem with booting my PC?

    I've googled it, but all the methods I've seen look horrendously complicated. There must be an easy way, surely?

    You don't use a boot floppy any longer. The actual Windows XP CD is bootable and you install directly from the CD. I got my Wnidows Vista RC1 DVD today and the next version of Windows will require a DVD-ROM drive to install.

    You did get a CD with your new computer didn't you? If not they should be easy to find at your local Burn N' Shop in Thailand as noted above.
