Hi, I have bought a Dell E4200 laptop where the drive was wiped so I have it with no operating system. I have created a USB boot disk with XP install on it via wintoflash. The Dell wont see the USB drive at all. USB boot direct from pre bios option tried, and bios set to USB boot first in BIOS. Run diagnostics from BIOS option and fine, tried setting hard drive to ATA from AHCI, tried hard drive disable SATA and nothing just boots to flashing curser on black screen after two lines of text.
Put USB in my XP desktop machine of similar age and that sees it.
USB was bought two months ago Sandisk 4gb?
Any ideas would be a great help....Thanks in advance.
