Not without a working cd burner!

I think i must have missed something, Couldn't the cd drive be taken out of one computer, Install and then transferred back?

Also i'm sure most if not all XP disks are bootable.

On another note you can pick up cd burners very cheap now on ebay etc.

    Ok that sorts that one out, Without an xp disk you can't install.

    Basically one of 2 options that i can see,

    1. Get the Xp disk and install.

    2. Get a working cd burner and some cd-r's and get linux.
