Hi everyone,
I've looked all over the internet to find a simple but working way to boot my PC from a USB Hard Drive.
My BIOS does support the boot option for a USB device.
This is what I did:
I took a new drive and formatted it, installe Windows XP REV 2 and but it in a USB box for booting purposes. When I start the cmputer up and have the BIOS set to boot from the USB drive it shows activity on the USB drive and show a 1/2 sec screenshot of the Windows XP booting screen the shuts down and boots from my C: drive (the normal boot drive).
Is there a program or a simple thing to do so it boots from the USB and continues to boot from this drive?
Any solutions are appreciated.
Thank you,
Craig
