Outstanding grades Punkster!
Now how about the progress report with your new girl friend?

You have had a lot on your plate for the last 4 months but your efforts paid off.
Kick back for awhile and then hit the books again.
My GPA was 3.2 which is the same amount of alcohol they put in beer.

what did you use for the xp usb installer?

i've successfully used novicorp wintoflash in the past.

i wonder if there's a better alternative, as that results in an odd two-stage xp install process.

MM,
I followed these instructions which I printed out and taped them to the bottom of '
their computer. Hope they can read as this is my last go at it.


Remove Windows Recovery (Uninstall Guide)

I know. I like to keep busy.

Creating an XP USB installation drive can be tricky, but I've managed to locate a method that works. I've not actually installed it yet as I need to perform a bit of surgery on my machine (plugging the HDD that I'll be using for XP into a different SATA socket).

I haven't actually completed this task yet, it is still a work in progress.

I used WinSetupFromUSB 0-2-2, which is quite easy to use and does pretty much everything that is required to create a bootable XP USB drive, although you still need to prepare the drive by following METHOD TWO steps 1 - 16 here: USB Windows 7 Installation Key Drive - Create

Note that the same restrictions will apply as with a standard XP installation disk in that supplementary drivers that may be required during setup will still need to be provided on a floppy disk.

Download WinSetupFromUSB 0-2-2.exe
