Install windows via network

Hi everyone!
Ok, i will provide all the important details:

1) I have a laptop and i want to reinstall windows
2) I do not install windows using a windows cd, it's a dvd that came with the computer and is a rescue dvd, it erases everything and copies windows and all the drivers. It's like an image.
3) The dvd drive isn't working ok and i need to boot from this dvd to restore the OS.
4) I have another computer running WXP SP2
5) I have a router: NetGear WGR614 v6
6) I want to take advantage of the network and boot from the other computer's dvd drive.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you.

Boot from other PC
make its DVD sharable
copy the installation to your first PC using that share.
now run the set up from PC-1 harddisk to re-install
Hope this will solve ur problem.
