I have windows xp and need to make a boot disk for my cd how do I do it?

Trying to clean up old computer which has windows xp now it does not start at the top. Is there a way I can download a recovery disc to reboot the system, then reinstall windows? I have another computer with windows xp can I use it to create the disks?

To reinstall Windows, you need a Windows XP installation disc.  There is a CD bootable you can create that will allow you to make repairs or backup your data to an external hard disk such as BartPE , UBCD4Win, Hirens Boot Diskand some "Live Linux" free of the such as Knoppix and Ubuntuboot floppies.

However, most of the OEMs have a recovery partition which will restore your machine on the condition that bought.  When you first start, look for a message on the screen telling you to press a key to retrieve.  It passes quickly, then you should look for and press this button quickly.  I hope this will solve your problems of re - install.
