oh for pete's sake, put the cd in the drive and boot to it(may have to set your bios to boot to cd-rom), then follow the on screen instructions, or are you wanting info on automated remote installs accross a nic's boot prom?

This should be no-Brainer operation: All Microsoft OS are really easy to install (except Window 3.11)

My only recommendation is to either use the (1) CDROM or the (2) Window XP - HomeEdition Install Floppies.
Search Microsoft.Com to find the Home Edition Boot Floppy Creator.

I make the mistake of installing through the traditional (3) DOS-BootDisk way with winnt.exe.
This was the slowest install method. Stick with the CDROM Install!

I don't have any sites but I like to make sure my cursor is dead center in the middle before I click 🙂

This is good advice, but if you are feeling advanced, and adventerous, try using the tab key and also the enter key to make your selections. increased my efficiency by 25% utilizing this method.
