If you can use CD-ROM in DOS you don`t need boot disk .Load DOS type "D: " (name of your CD-ROM may be different letters )insert disk with you XP type " CD i386" press enter then type "winnt" this command will start intalation
You can create the XP bootdisks and start the installation process. Go to the bootdisk dir and type makebt32.
