Just tried to create a MS-Dos Bootable Floppy diskette in XP Pro a few minutes ago so I could use it to flash my MB Bios. So I formated the 3.5" Diskette, then selected 'Create an MS-Dos Startup Disk' After this was done, I restarted XP with the disk in the drive, and it booted up, but then I got a error message saying something like: 'File Missing C:\Windows\Command.com' This error looks like it would come from a Win9x machine, not my XP Pro rig? I don't get it. I looked on the MS KnowledgeBase, but nothing. Anyone have any ideas. Thanks

Actually, you just created a WinMe boot floppy. Honest! It really is!! Hopefully you have a Win98 boot disk around. Or search the net for a boot floppy.

Courtney: creating an XP Boot Disk; (assumes your cab files have been copied to your hard drive) insert floppy in Drive A: open the Command Console; click Start, Run, type: cmd and press the Enter key. press the Enter key after typing each of the following commands at the Command Console prompt: 1. CD C:\ 2. FORMAT A: 3. COPY C:\I386\NTLDR A:\ 4. COPY C:\I386\NTDETECT.COM A:\ 5. ATTRIB -R -H -S C:\BOOT.INI 6. COPY C:\BOOT.INI A:\ 7. ATTRIB +R +H +S C:\BOOT.INI write-protect the floppy before storing. or you can download boot disks from: http://www.bootdisk.com and for XP Pro: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/release.asp?releaseid=33291 and for a choice of either Home or Pro: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;310994
