5. Click "File." Click "Save As." Select "All Files (*.*)" from the "Save as Type" drop-down menu.
6. Enter "controls.man" into the "File Name" field. Select the desktop as the destination, then click "Save."
7. Go to the "i386" folder, found within the "XP" folder. Navigate through "asms," "6000," "msft," "windows," "common" and "controls."
8. Drag-and-drop the "controls.man" file on the desktop into the "controls" folder to fix the syntax error during XP installation. Select the option to overwrite the existing "controls.man" file.
9. Use a program like NERO or nLite to burn the file to disc. Other CD burning programs might not work, since not all can burn bootable discs.
