Hmm... I thought they would have included it in XP; apparently not. (unless 
they've re-named it) Maybe you can try getting a copy of windisk.exe from 
someone who has Win 2000, and see if it works under XP... or I could send you a 
copy of mine from NT 4.0. I would think the Win 2000 disk administrator would 
be more compatible, though.
