Ok, I know this is a dumb question, but can you use the xp download off eraider to make a bootable disc? Do you just copy all the extracted files over to a blank CD?

i've tried it, never seems to work quite right. i'd swear i did it before but it might have been different becuase it was SP1...
but can't you just get a CD for $5 down at the library? -------------------- |

i actually ended up downloading a pirated copy elsewhere and using the legit key with it that way (be careful of all the hacked/"modded" xp copies out there), but there is some (really complicated) guide out there (involving modifying boot sectors and stuffs)

This sounds a lot like what I did several years ago to make a bootable version. Crimson (I think was her name) posted a how-to guide for doing this a long time ago, but obviously it was lost with the reset. -------------------- Spam? Isn't that something poor people eat?

I've used it to make the ttu one bootable. winner! thats it! here's the site: http://www.nu2.nu/bootcd/#wxp i think this is it. it may not be the one crims0n posted, but i know i've used this before and it works. i was pretty sure it had instructions for sp2 as well, bc i know i've done it before...or maybe you just use the same instructions. whatever happend to crims0n and her husband anyway? -------------------- ![]() |
