LLXX Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 I have no idea what a "ct" is either but it can be done, simply involves copying the XP installfiles to the HDD and making it bootable. Instead of booting to DOS prompt, run WINNT.EXE instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
