Reply: (edit)go to WWW.BOOTDISK.COM and download it!
That's if you want the boot disk for the XP clean install ( this is a program that you download to your HD and it extracts itself to 6 floppies)
OR if you just want a regular DOS startup disk, just go to your A drive in my computer, make sure there is a floppy in the drive, right click on the A drive and select format, then at the bottom of the format screen(box) you will se a box that says "create an MS DOS startup disk" just check this and click OK! Hope this helps! Matt

Reply: (edit)start up disk for what?
since the XP disk is bootable it is its own repair/start up disk
if you need a floppy start up
right click your floppy drive in explorer
select "format"
select"create MSDOS startup disk"
