I bought a used netbook and I wanted to wipe the harddrive and reinstall Windows XP. The problem is, since it doesn't have a disk drive, I have to install it with a flash drive.
I didn't get a rescue usb stick or something like that from the previous owner, and I only have a Windows XP CD.
I tried various USB sticks, using various programs like UNetbootin, rufus, WinToFlash and WiNToBootic, but none of that worked. I even downloaded 2 diffrent .iso files, but that didn't work either.
It either hat a problem during installation or it didn't even started to install.
My most recent problem is "NTLDR missing". I used ImgBurn to get an iso from the files of the original Windows XP CD and used Rufus to install it on a 4GB Flash drive. The Netbook is an Acer Aspire One, model no. KAV60
Any ideas why?
Thanks a lot!
