Unless you're wanting to do something different than just
make a duplicate of your XP CD, I suggest you put the CD
back in and use Nero's duplicate function or make an ISO out
of it (then burn the copy from the ISO) so you later have
that in order to make the disc again w/o having to copy it
off the original disc again.

easiest thing to do is just use Nero's "copy cd" feature


otherwise you have to do such things as extract the boot sector etc

Hello??? Your "win xp cd" is ALREADY "bootable"? Just how old ARE you,
