Fantastic that seemed to be the problem it didn't like CD-RWs. burnt to proper disk and it worked thanks for all you help guys

any idea how to create a bootable disk for rebuild then?

keep getting an I/O error. per the attached. tried setting the i/o to 32kb manual but that doesn't work any ideas

I have now spent days trying to combine a SP1 & SP2 XP disk to no success...... HELP!!! so far i have followed the ryanVM intergrater process and have a I386 folder on the harddrive. i have managed to get an image file off the original disk (SP1) what i really need is someone to lead me step by step using the integrated files. what i don't understand is if i should bring the other files and directories across from the original SP1. once i have this all together how do i create a iso and then make the disk. all help really apreciated getting desperate!!
