RE: if i burnt xp to cd-rw will it boot on start up
Making a backup of XP is easy, I done it lots.
Simply copying and pasting the files from the xp disk won't work, it won't be bootable that way. (Although I believe you can use a Win boot floppy and type "SETUP")
What you need to do is use a prog like Alcohol or UltraISO and make an image of the disk.
Then burn that image to disk.
Simple as that.

Forgot to mention, I use/reccomend nLite. Be careful with that one though, don't get carried away...
