Anyone know of an alternative to remote installation. I do not feel like installng server 2k3 to get xp installed on my laptop.

I found winner but I guess they are not supporting it anymore because the software will not update. (says no internet conenction, but really its not finding the download site i think)

So is there another option that i am not finding?
 
Okay it only took me 12 hours :)

I am running tftpd on a PXE server and I have everything setup so that the laptop boots up connects to the server and transfers the windows boot disk

unfortunately it stops there. The laptop says starting windows millenium emergency boot disk and never does anything else.

Its impossible to find IMZ files already exsisting for dos net boot. Would it be possible to instead of running hte floopy imz to instead run the windwos install CD?
