the way I did it ,was to copy/paste
each folder off of the winxp cd, into a new folder named winxp.
then create a data cd using ezcd and copy
the contents of the winxp folder.
I opened d:\winxp and added all folders & files to the project.
this way I avoided the copy failure of controls.man ,which when trying to copy cd to cd ,comes out all zeroes.
