Getting a Dos bottable floppy when using XP or 2000

Hi there,
it might be a very simple question but the requirement for a bios update of my motherboard , is to use a dos bootable disk on which one needs to download the new bios a flasher. Unfortunately, I only have access to Windows XP and windows 2000. How can I make a bootable disk from these OS?

Thanks in advance

Eric
 
Eric, put the floppy in the xp system then go into my computer & right click the floppy & you'll get an option to make a
ms dos boot disk.


 
Thanks Bacillus for the quick answer,

Very simple indeed

Gunbuster,

I admit it was the wrong forum, it should have been in the OS section but your answer was not too constructive
Thanks anyway

Eric

hello and welcome to anandtech i see its your first post😛

when the mods see this they will lock this thread since its in the wrong forum or maybe just move it if your lucky so i better answer fast

go to www.bootdisk.com they have a whole download section for all the os's boot disk files,simply download the flavor you need and unzip it to a floppy,bootdisk ala quick😉

but since the mods are being kind today i thought i would aid gunbuster in getting the meaning across😛
