Hi guys.

 

I am trying to build a usb stick to install xp with, on the extreme.

I followed the steps in the guide. And I am at the point where I am ready to fire up the usb and start loading the os into the ram.

 

But when I am selecting the first step of installing (install windows xp txt mode) it gives me an error. Error 15. It says file not found.

 

What am i doing wrong ?

I am hoping one of you is able to give me some pointers to sort this out.

 

Thanx in advance.

did you make sure to label the iso exactly like in the guide XP or XP64, I also had trouble with a very stripped iso but most work great.

Thanks for your reply,

 

Yes.

 

I named it exactly as written in the guide. ( XP.iso )

Have tried several iso's. Stripped ones as well as a full one.

Even build a new one with nlited.

 

All gave me no joy.

 

Where shoul I look ?

In the direction of the iso or some other direction ?

did you actually label it XP.iso in the name or are you listing iso as the file extension. I know this sounds so dumb but at the beginning I accidentally named it xp.iso. I know it sounds silly but it could happen. Otherwise I am not exactly sure. Also some usb drives just don't work right, my 32gb microcenter usb 3.0 drive just doesn't work no matter what I try, new one works great
