One cannot modify or extract certain files from a Restore CD.
Only solution is go out and purchase a conventional copy of
Windows XP.
On page 5-1 of your eMachine User Guide, it explains that restoring
Windows XP involves reformatting the hard drive. The eMachine
Restore CDs does the reformatting for you before reinstalling XP.
In other words, do not manually reformat your drive..... allow the Restore
CD to do its job. Please read your eMachine User Guide for details.
If you misplaced your eMachine User Guide, you can download another.
