Making a real XP boot floppy
The main function of this boot floppy is that when Windows XP cannot start normally, you can use this boot floppy to boot and enter Windows XP.
The following procedures can be carried out in other Windows versions, Windows 95 or later.

First download the boot floppy program from Microsoft, but this program requires six floppy disks.
First run this boot floppy program, but only make the first floppy disk, then take it out and press the key to quit making the other floppy disks.
Then delete all the contents of the completed first floppy disk.
Under the directory on the Windows XP CD, copy the following two files to the floppy disk mentioned above:

Ntdetect.com
Ntldr

Then rename on the floppy disk to .
Then copy under C:\ to the floppy disk and that's it.
Insert this boot disk when starting up, and you will see the normal startup screen.

This is not even as convenient as pressing F8 at startup to do system repair.

Actually, if someone made a boot disk for installing winXP or win2000 under DOS, it would definitely be very popular too.
