Experience with using USB disk to install Windows XP system

Portable notebook Everything is good, the only inconvenient place is if the system collapsed, do the system more trouble. This weekend, I studied the morning, and finally learned to use a U disk to do the boot disk to the notebook to do a new system. I think this method is much simpler than the light drive recovery, so take it and share it with the friends in the jar.

First introduce the next two main characters, Kingston 8G u disk and million 81005 notebooks. My million-81005 book is a year ago, in the new Year's time encountered a relatively serious virus intrusion, anti-virus system has been not too smooth, but the work is busy, has not been free to do the new system. Today is more leisurely, so I am determined to do away with the old system.

U disk Startup Disk production:

1, u disk Format: The proposed use of 1G capacity above the U disk (because to copy the system and U disk startup software, so there should be enough space), first use Flashboot to format the U disk into USB-HDD or usb-zip one of these two modes, I chose Usb-zip this mode, This is the best of the million-Lida notebook can be very good support.

2, U disk version WinPE: Think up in the DOS install XP under the pain, so ready to use U disk version WinPE after the implementation of XP system installation, and later testing is indeed feasible. I downloaded on the internet is the old peaches WinPE U plate, inside in addition to WinPE outside also a variety of common tools, decompression after the file is copied into the format of a good u disk on it.

Windows XP System Installation:

1, set the U disk start: Press F2 key after the boot into the BIOS settings, the boot menu will be the third USB boot option open, that is, select Enabled, save and exit the BIOS settings.

2, will be ready before the XP installation disk all copied into the U disk, and then insert a U disk and boot, directly into the U disk startup, the Launch menu, choose to Start Micro-win-pe (by the old Peaches), after entering the WinPE system. XP installation disk from the U disk into the small section of the C area, I am two partitions, that is, the copy in D area, and then directly run the installation disk folder SETUP.EXE file, there will be familiar with the XP installation interface, follow the prompts step-by-step to complete it.

I do not like to use the online ghost installation disk, feel the normal installation of a more stable step by step, all installed after the Gohst backup, easy to restore use later. If you are accustomed to using ghost restore way to install the system friends, directly to the mirror file into the U disk and copy to the C area outside the division, using the old Peaches WinPE with the Norton GHOST32 will directly restore the system to the C area can be.
