If you wanna reinstall XP, and you can't get it to boot from the CD, you can
use the Windows XP Setup Boot floppies.

| Well after screwing with the registry. Making any
| attempt to access Burner impossible.
|
| So attempted to boot off burner to reinstall XP...
| No luck. Drive recognized by bios, yet not accessible
| for booting...
|
| I reinstalled old burner...
| Went back to a restore point..
| So I will stick with my old burner for now.
|
| May try again this weekend. Or just give the darn
| thing back to my brother and wait to buy a new one.
|
| Thank you,
| Glen
