It often happens that something goes wrong with XP and we need to reboot the system using XP bootable and have to repair the XP using the recovery Console. but now we dont need the bootable CD every time you need to repair XP because you can install the recovery console on the harddisk itself and then simply select the Recovery Console option from the bootmenu whenever you need to repair the XP.

To install Recovery Console insert the XP bootable disk in the CDROM and goto Command prompt(start>run cmd enter) now here type

Code:
[b]x:\i386\winnt32.exe /cmdcons [/b]

This will install recovery console to the boot menu.(where x is CDROM drive letter).
