    The specs in your post, sound like a old WinXP PC.
    Some old WinXP PC's, will not boot from a USB Pen Drive.

    But the Computer is apart from that OS which sites on it. Your meaning is, since my system specs are some old so it can't boot from USBs?

    You need to make the USB bootable first, using an confirmed official ISO with the MS tool or another reliable tool like UltraISO Software To Create Bootable USB Flash Drive.

    Then set the HD first to boot in BIOS setup, reboot and tap the key given on first screen for Boot Menu (had you given us the PC or mobo model we could tell you what this is) to look for the stick under USB, Removable or HD's - you may have to expand (+) a listing to see the stick which is normally listed by name.

    If it doesn't load when you select it try another writing method like Ultra which always works.

    If it doesn't show up confirm the stick is written correctly by trying to boot it in another PC. Check in BIOS setup that Legacy USB and USB boot are enabled.
