So my old laptop hard drive crashed. The CD rom does not work on this pc,
but I would like to reinstall XP back onto it as I can't afford a new
laptop.
I do have the floppy drive and can boot from it. How do I create a network
boot disk and install XP. I assume I can copy the 386 folder onto another
pc and then network boot the laptop, just never done this before.
