If you are looking at a startup disk for XP (for install), Microsoft has the six disk set you can download from their site: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=http://support.microsoft. com:80/support/kb/articles/q310/9/94.asp?ID=310994&NoWebContent=1 (pardon the wrap) Otherwise, for general utility purposes, I have escrowed the Win98 startup disk....all the utilities and CD drivers, it is sometimes the easiest way!
