I have burnt the ISO and booted from cd. Then I tried to make a bootable usb using the tools, usb zip. It would not work when saying uba, but progressed when I selected sba. It seems I have not installed to usb, but to harddrive. The computer boots from harddrive now into DSLn. Is there any way, that I can recover my WinXP and contents of my HD? Sad

// harddrive XP recovery

Try using your original XP disks and do a repair / recovery type of install.

It has worked for me a couple of times.
