How to use USB flash drive to install Windows XP system in detail?
Friends who use netbooks know that netbooks don't have optical drives. Therefore, the use of the system is a cautious and expert patent, and it is difficult for ordinary people to succeed. However, there are always more methods than problems. Now I have this idea, that is, actual combat: USB disk startup disk production: 1, USB disk formatting: it is recommended to use a USB disk with a capacity of 1G or more (because there is enough space to copy the system and USB disk startup software), and first format the USB disk into USB-HDD or USB-ZIP with Flashboot. I chose us. 2.u disk version of WinPE: I remembered the pain of installing XP under DOS, so I prepared to install XP system after starting with U disk version of WinPE. Later, the test was indeed feasible. What I downloaded from the Internet is the USB flash drive version of Peach, which contains all kinds of common tools except winpe. After decompression, just copy all the files to the formatted USB flash drive. Windows XP system installation: 1, set USB driver startup: after startup, press F2 to enter BIOS setup, and open the third USB boot option in the boot menu, that is, select Enable, Save and exit BIOS setup. 2. Copy all XP installation disks prepared before to the USB flash drive, then insert the USB flash drive and turn it on. You will directly enter the USB flash drive to start, and the startup menu will appear. After choosing to start mini WIN-PE(by peaches), you will enter the WinPE system. Copy the XP installation disk from the U disk to the partition outside the C area of the notebook. Mine is two partitions, that is, copy it in the D area, and then directly run the SETUP.EXE file of the installation disk folder, and a familiar XP installation interface will appear, which can be completed step by step according to the prompts. I don't like to use the GHOST installation disk on the Internet. I think the normal installation step by step is relatively stable. After all the installation, I will make a backup of GOHST for future use. If you have friends who are used to using GHOST to restore the installation system, copy the image file directly to the USB flash drive to the partition outside the C area of this book, and use Norton GHOST32 that comes with WinPE in the old cat to directly restore the system to the C area. As we all know, the speed of flash memory is faster than that of CD-ROM drive, so the time for installing the system can be greatly shortened by this method.
