Install Windows XP using Pen Drive / USB Drive.

Install Windows XP using Pen Drive / USB Drive.

Yes, you can install windows / linux or any other operating system using your pen drive. In this tutorial we are using pen drive to install windows XP.

Requirements :

-> A pen drive [1gb / 2 gb is sufficient]
-> A software application i.e. WinSetupFromUSB
-> A working system
-> Windows CD or image file

Steps to follow : -

1. Download & Run WinSetupFromUSB application link to which is given above in requirements

2. Now just keep on selecting next during the setup and the program will run automatically once the setup is finished :)

3. Insert / Plug in your pen drive into the computer and backup anything important from it as we are going to format your pen drive. We are going to make it useful for installing OS.

4. In the WinSetupFromUSB-0.1.1 window: click Refresh next the USB selection box. The USB pen you have just plugged in should now be visible in the drop down menu. Select the usb drive from the drop down list.

5. Now either insert your windows CD and give the path in the Windows2000/XP/2003 source or just mount your windows image n give the path of the same.

Just click browse and give the path to your CD/IMAGE.

6. Now at first click the HP format tool button to format your pen drive. Just click next as it is and accept all windows. Don't change any selection.

7. Then click PE to USB button



8. Now Tick the Enable Disk Format box under Format Options and Tick Quick Format and Enable LBA (FAT16X).
Also make sure that Enable File Copy is not ticked.


9. Click Start. Click Yes when the pop up asks if you wish to continue. Click Yes again when the pop up asks you if you are sure you wish to continue. When you get the Completed successfully message click OK and close PEtoUSB.

10. In the WinSetupFromUSB-0.1.1 window: Click GO. The Program will now create a bootable windows XP install on your USB pen drive. Here you have to wait a while untill it finishes.

11. Then, Click agree to the “SYSINTERNALS SOFTWARE LICENSE TERMS” pop up.

12. Click OK to the “This is Important” pop up.

13. The creation process is now complete: Take the newly formatted USB Pen and place it in the USB port of the target computer and turn it on.

NOTE: You must now read carefully what pops up on the screen as it will provide you with the hot-key (keyboard shortcut key) that, when pressed, triggers access to the BIOS. It is usually something like F1, F2, Delete, Tab or Escape.

14. Navigate the BIOS with the keyboard and find the section that contains your boot devices. With your USB drive plugged in, the USB drive should be listed. If it isn’t, your system might not support booting from USB.

15. Assuming that it is supported (as is the case with virtually all modern hardware), promote your USB drive to the primary boot device.

16. Exit from the BIOS configuration, saving all changes.

17. The computer will now reboot. Assuming that you have successfully compiled the bootable USB XP install and that you have successfully selected the USB device to be booted first in the bios a screen should appear which reads Windows 2000/XP/2003 Setup - First and Second Parts . Press Enter. You will now be presented with 2 options.

Select Option 1 (first part) for the first stage of the installation process.

18. When the first stage setup completes and system reboots select Windows 2000/XP/2003 Setup - First and Second Parts, then Option 2 (second part) for the second stage of the setup.

DO NOT REMOVE THE USB PEN FROM USB PORT UNTIL YOU SEE THE WINDOWS START MENU

-----------------------------------------That's All----------------------------------------------
Enjoy!!!!
