I am trying to do a clean install of XP on my laptop.
My laptop currently has no OS. I have a full version bootable CD for Windows XP but the CD on the laptop is not working. My desktop has it's own OEM version of XP. I have a peer network (no server)using both TCP/IP and NetBEUI protocols because I also have a Win98 machine on the network.

Is there a way to install over the network? Or is there a way to install using floppy disks?
