Re: recovery console

You need to get or make a newer version of XP. The normal way to do this is
to "slipsteam" SP2 into the contents of the original XP CDROM and make a new
new CDROM that is essentially XP+SP2. While manual slip-streaming is
possible, I find that small free utility can handle the details for you. It
is called nLite. Here is a link to the download:

Note that nLite was originally written to remove parts of XP. But, if you
accept all defaults, it can easily be used to make a complete slip-streamed
CD. To be precise, it maes an ISO imgae of the CD. To transfer that to a
CD you need something like Nero or Easy CD Creator, using options like "burn
CD from image". Do NOT simply drag&drop the file to a CD.

Important: To use nLite, Microsoft .Net version 1.1 or higher must be
installed. This is free from Microsoft.

Here is the guide to using it:
