Put the disk in the drive, open 'My Computer' and there will be an option to create a boot disk ;)

Right click on the floppy drive and choose format. There should be an option for making a boot-disk.

Bart's PE is an excellent boot CD builder.  Not for the faint of heart, though.

You'll find a utility to make a set of WinXP floppy boot disks on http://www.bootdisk.com/.

There might be one for a CD there too, have a look ;)
