I loved this tutorial, but I changed it up a bit (because I was being cheap)
What I did was I got my XP files (I used some disc I had sitting on my desk with SP3, and put the files on a flash drive), an MS-Dos 7.10 disc, a Knoppix disc (probably any live linux distrib would work).
I was fixing my friend's Fujitsu Lifebook Tablet, with my Gateway Laptop.
I basically just did everything in the tutorial, just with the use of Knoppix to format to FAT32 and copy the files over from my flash drive.
It was annoying, but at least I saved money
