How can I get a. ISO XP rescue CD?

Affected by system crashes and other strangeness.  Suspect that it is the Master Boot Record and need to boot from another device to fix.  My system came with a non - MS XP Distribution drive that is not bootable. Disk image is available for the XP backup disk that is part of the MS disc?  Thank you

When I tried to use the recovery CD of Console and just press enter for the administrator password prompt, the Console starts.  But when I try to run a utility to repair the MBR, I get a message with restricted access.

That's your mistake. See the following page:
Here is an excerpt:
Restrictions and limitations of the Recovery Console when you use the Windows Recovery Console, you can only use the following:

  • The root folder
  • The SystemRoot folder and the subfolders of the Windows installation that you are currently connected
  • The Cmdcons folder
  • Readers of removable media such as CD-ROM drive or the DVD drive

Note If you try to access other folders, you may receive an error message "access denied." This does not necessarily mean that the data contained in these files are lost or corrupted. This only means that the folder is not available when you run the Windows Recovery Console. Also, when you use the Windows Recovery Console, you cannot copy a file from the local hard disk to a floppy disk. However, you can copy a file to a floppy disk or a CD-ROM to a hard drive, and you can copy a file from a hard disk to another hard disk.

When you say "when I try to run a utility to repair the MBR', this means that you have another drive connected to your PC, which contains a program (such as aswMBR.exe) and you try to run! You can't do that with the Recovery Console. If you want to repair the MBR, you must run the command fixmbr at the APPROPRIATE command prompt.
