Default Unable booting Windows XP in a Laptop


Hi All!

Need help in installing Windows XP through USB flash drive in my HP laptop. I successfully booted through my 512 mb flash drive with BartPE. After booting with BartPE, whenever I try to run XP setup from my laptop hard drive, after being copied all setup files, the setup window returns to the first screen of XP setup and can not boot from Hard drive. The CD rom of my laptop is out of order.

Thanks!

If you can boot from your flash drive, install 98 on it or it an old hard drive and install 98 on it, after its install copy the setup files from the CD to the flash drive as long as they will fit, if not and you have no other choice buy a bigger flash drive. Once you get a bigger flash drive/it does fit, you can run setup from the flash drive or copy the installed 98 to the hard drive boot to it, then remove the os off the flash and copy the CD of xp to flash drive and copy the setup files to either your desktop or somewhere on windows 98 and it should start copying. bartpe is not good for starting your OS, because it isnt an actual OS. Questions, post them here.
