Why not just run a second copy of XP using a virtual machine?

It’s a lot easier and simpler than messing around with BartPE (which gave me crushing chest pains), booting from CD’s or running from external/second drives.

Your virtual version of XP runs completely isolated, and you can have it as lean, clean, and stripped down as you want.

I use VMware Player, which is very easy to use, and free.
