Need some help creating an XP rescovery disk?

I've gotten down to #6 and I think I've done it correctly. We will fine out when I have to use it. I just don't understand where to put the file in #6?

Now open the wxp10.zip file that you downloaded earlier. Simply doubleclicking it in Windows explorer should do the trick. Go into the cds directory and into wxphome (or wxppro; it doesn't matter which) directory, followed by the files directory. Drag the "w2ksect.bin" file into C:\ (the root directory/folder of drive C . Don't get creative and place it in some other directory. If you do that, ImgBurn will not be able to find c:\w2ksect.bin later.

What does it mean by that? I just don't want to get it wrong!

 

Based on reading everything you need to copy the file directly to the root of the C:\ drive. You can verify it's done right by My Computer > local disk and you should see the w2ksect.bin on the (root) of C:\

 

On the computer, not in the folder that I created to make a recovery disk? Also not in any folder? Just in the C:/? Also root just means top right?

 

correct, on C:\ and not in any folder and root does mean top. good luck with your project.
