Hi all,

Please let me know to create a bootable disk of windows xp media centre
edition. Is it possible to repair existing XP installed on another machine
by using bootable disk . Becuase other machine xp is not working but in
that
machine has windows xpmedia centre set up . But unfortunatly that
machine
cannot be loggin in now. So is it possible to run windowXP setup.exe
again
in that machine using boot disk.

You could boot into the Recovery Console with your installation CD. Click
Start / Help and look for help on "Recovery Console" to see how it's done.

If you want to run the setup process, set your BIOS so that it uses the CD
drive as its primary boot device, then boot from your installation CD.
