There is some strange error on XP, and I would like to restore it with CD..
Does anyone have any suggestions on the procedure how to restore XP system
with CD?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Two methods can be used for this:

1) Large "branded" PC companies have XP "recovery" CDs. These will
erase the installed XP (all files) and then replace the XP as of the
time the PC was sent out of the factory.

2) Microsoft's standard XP install from CD. Boot to PC with the CD in
the CD / DVD drive. Follow the direction.
