Alternatively, you could burn that image to a 90min CD-R, provided that your burner supports burning it (use the slowest write speed) and that the reader drive supports reading it all the way. By the way, the original, untouched XP Media Center came in 2 discs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
