Does is matter which version of XP is on the computer? If so, how can that be determined from a non-bootable system?

Hi asp,
Sorry mate but I have no knowledge of this as never tried it and wouldn't go near an XP machine these days (never liked them back in the day) so you'll have to wait til Britec comes online.

If you have a Windows XP CD that has Recovery Console in it, that file has been rip from a Windows XP CD.

I found an XP iso online, but as it is not the exact same version of XP, it refuses to display the Recovery console.
So, how can I get your recovery ISO onto a USB flash drive?

Just use ERD Commander 2005, its a lot better and gives you more options for repair.

Its not freeware and to make a bootable USB, you ca use
Rufus
If you don't want to pay, use a Windows XP CD.

Its probably just my luck but i haven't been able to get rufas to work with windows xp do you think it could depend on which version of rufas im using because i seem to get an error message when i use rufas with an iso image of xp with the current version of rufas
