  1. how do I create a bootable USB from a Vista or XP OS computer for a new build computer?


    I have paid for a licence for a Home version of Windows 10.

    I have only XP and a Vista OS computers which I can download with.

    I want to create a bootable USB 3.0 ISO Windows 10 file for a new build fresh computer.

    I have downloaded a copy of Windows 10 onto a USB 3.0 stick. The new computer recognises the USB stick but does not boot from it.

    I appreciate your advice.

    :)

    How to create bootable USB? Please Help!

    Hello guys,
    My friend's computer has been infected by virus very badly. It won't even let the win. xp (pre-installed on the computer) load properly. I tried to run command prompt but it won't let it. Now I have no option left other than to format his Hard drive and install new win. xp.
    I have 2 GB USB.
    Please someone help me create a bootable USB (that boots with command prompt) so that I can install downloaded WIN. XP S3 on his computer.

    Any comments or suggestions of this kind'd be appreciated.

    cheers,
    xhunter.

    I don't think you can fit WinXP on a 2gb flash drive. Look around this forum, Mussles made a guide about how to make a bootable USB drive.

    how do I create a bootable USB from a Vista or XP OS computer for a new build computer?

    Multi-bootable USB

    Hey guys from TPU, couldn't find any specific thread pertaining to the question asked on title. As mentioned, I'm trying to create a bootable USB, but with many specifics boots available.

    I've been trying to create one with multiple boot device including one that enables me to run Windows 10 directly on the USB Thumb Drive but to no avail.

    The list of bootable images i'm trying to create are

    1. Windows 10 (A full OS running from thumb drive)
    2. Windows 10 ISO (Bootable disk image for fresh install)
    3. MemTest86+

    Have tried YUMI or UUI from the website USB PenDrive Linux but as this is my first time, i don't know how am i screwing up or am doing it right.. Anyone got a rough idea on a step by step guide? Thanks!
