ok, pity that i have to get anothe version 'coz ive been downloading that one for days
well, ive had a very kind offer from a member that i have accepted, will get it soon

[unless anyone reading this can think of a way to correct the error i have now..]

<edit> Have already deleted the corrupted file, dont believe in sharing them... </edit>

hiya,
i have tried installing xp on my other pc with the CDs ive already got but it doesnt work..

Also, "backup the i386 files" - how do i do that and what will it do

[DARKSHADOW]

backin up the 1386,docs,support and valueadd folders and the setup and win51*.* files of the xp yr alreay running will make yr own new copy of xp
plus u need a boot sector file to make it bootable like an original copy

404 file not found

then do i just stick all that onto a CD-ROM as an image or data then run it?
