Oh...it sounds simple....so are you saying that...even if the pc does not have any form of OS installed....let say it is a brand new empty HDD.....in this case....I don't think it would work....am i right?
For it to work through a network....does the other pc have to have an OS installed...in order for you to replace the existing OS? |

What I did when the cd drive went back on my bro's laptop was:
Network it with mine (xp home was on it and he wanted xp pro) then share my cd drive then read my drive from his laptop. This was done also to install the additional softwares.

the six floppies will allow you to boot and use networking to do install. there is another way if there is no working network adapter Install instructions
This will work with no cd or floppy
