I have made a RAW cd image (iso/bin) of my xp cd (to keep it bootable)




Jooel,

Not sure what you're doing. Every CD burning program I can think of can easily burn the original XP CD and keep it bootable. As far as I can tell there was no protection methods on the Enterprise CD. (don't know about the Retail version) However, if you allow CloneCD to copy the CD and create an image of it, it will burn a copy for you and keep another image on the Hard Drive. Unless you're just determined to do it with some specific method, this will work. I've done it many times. I can go burn a copy right now and put it in a new Computer with an unformatted hard drive and it will boot from the CD and install XP on the system.
