Its been a few months and I've been pretty rough with the system so it's time for a new install. I go through floppy drives faster than coffee so am without and dont fancy digging through all my bits to find a working one.
So I'm looking for an image to install from off CD. I have the one that is actually a proper image from bootdisk.com, but am not sure if it as good as it should be. Does any one know of or have a decent image?
Or can you install from freedos/opendos?
Thanks.

Tried from FreeDOS, complains about invalid opcodes.
The image from bootdisk.com, didnt work on a rw so I tried on a cdr, but it seemed to have some problem with my HD.

I used cdimagepro and cdimageGUI, i'm sure you can find that around here or google. Else nLite also has the ability to create a bootable iso and offers lots of options to customise your xp installation.

Thanks jaclaz, I'll take a look at some of those.
I've actually got the image from bootdisk.com working and have used it. Deepburner apparently cant handle it, so I used mkisofs. I also had to put the disk in my other drive, in my DVD burner it freezes, but works in my older combo.
