reinstall winXP without floppy drive

[Guest]

I need to reinstall Win XP Pro onto my daughter's Toughbook CF-72. It does
not have a floppy. Is there anyway to do a clean reinstall without the floppy
boot disk?

If your PC supports booting from a CD then this should help.

Boot the machine with your WinXP CD and follow the clues.

XP is installed from the installation CD which is bootable. Neither a
floppy boot disk or a floppy drive are needed, unless drivers for the disk
controller, such as a sata controller, need to be added at the beginning of
the installation, and are not on the installation CD.
