Hi All Guys,
Kindly advise how to create a "boot floppy/rescue diskette" During installation it did not prompt such a request.

There is no boot disk or rescue disk like the one (startup disk) in Win 9x or Me because the win xp cd is bootable and can be used to troubleshoot.
If you want to make a MS-DOS startup disk: insert a blank floppy disk in drive A and right-click drive A. Select Format and check the Create an MS-Dos startup disk check box and click Ok
If you want to make an ARS disk: All Programs->Accessories->System Tools->Backup->click Advanced Mode and follow the instructions to make an ARS disk.
Hope this helps. Bye
