Even though most operating system deployment packages are delivered via a CD / DVD, these might become obsolete after some time, if not taken care of. However, you can always make a backup to stay on the safe side. In this regard, RS Windows XP Install CD Creator gives you the possibility to create a copy of your Windows XP CD and patch it up with the latest additions.

The application only takes little of your time, the interface being cleverly organized with several steps accompanied by helpful info. One of the first things is to get the files required to make the CD bootable downloaded. The process is done automatically at the press of a button.

In fact, most of the available functions are automated and only require you to trigger them. You can select either Home or Professional editions to be deployed by the newly created installer.

One of the most important things you need to consider is whether or not the original CD still works so that files required to build the installer are extracted. However, the application provides an alternative in case you want to build everything from scratch, but it requires an ISO file to replace the CD.

You can choose to place Service Pack 3 amongst the features deployed, in case the version you posses is older. What's more, you can take your time and download necessary drivers so that they are placed on the CD for enhanced package deployment.

When all things are set, corresponding icons change to green, indicating that you are ready to create the CD. This can either be done by following four steps in the “Simple” method, or hit the “More DIY stuff” button if you know exactly what you're doing.

All things considered, RS Windows XP Installation CD Creator is a handy application that lives up to expectations. Even though the operating system it's targeting is outdated, there are still a lot of users that can surely put this powerful tool to good use. Moreover, the intuitive design and useful info displayed next to functions make sure the result is successful.
