I have copied my original XP Pro CD onto another CD. But coped CD does not
make the computer bootup. The original CD can. I just dragged and dropped
the
files and folder from original CD to new one.

If I put copied CD into CD-ROM it won't come with option of installation
but
original can.

Have I done anything wrong?


If you want a true copy of your original CD then you must use
the "Copy CD" function of your CD burner instead of dragging
and dropping files & folders.
