I used the procedure you described, but before initial setup completed, error messageSetup information file D:\i386\COMPDATA\NTCOMPAT.INF is invalid. displayed. This was followed by installation did not complete. I never even got to the screen for the recovery console.

Did you follow these steps?
1. Insert the Windows XP CD into your drive.
2. At a command prompt, type d:\i386\winnt32.exe /cmdcons (replacing d with the letter of your CD drive).
3. A Windows Setup message appears, describing the Recovery Console option.
4. Click Yes to install the console.
The next time you start your computer, you’ll see a "Microsoft Windows Recovery Console" entry on the boot menu.
