+1 i actually created my own ISO of a ripped down XP install, and it works very well for superpi and most of the 3d benches....
but once you have it and your drivers and benches installed. then image it.... so if you corrupt it... it will take a few minutes to image back but you will have a perfectly functioning os without having to reinstall everything. not to mention keep a flash drive for your validation pics... remember if your OS gets corrupt and cant boot you prolly lost your validation pics too on the HDD
