It's no secret that for Linux there are live distributions that allow you to boot from removable media. They are designed for convenient operation on different machines. And what can Microsoft offer about this? Yes, practically nothing. But installing Windows XP on a USB flash drivewould be a great outlet for those who prefer this operating system. Indeed, all new computers and laptops are now preinstalled with Windows 7, and soon a tablet-oriented Windows 8 will be released at all. And here, I installed a USB flash drive and after a couple of minutes my favorite OS was loaded. The people, who are very inventive, have long understood how to install Windows XP on a USB flash drive. Get ready for a fairly complex and lengthy procedure, but also a decent result - a fully functional system running Windows XP on a USB flash drive. Here is the sequence of your actions:
1. First you need to disconnect all internal and external hard drives, as well as all memory cards.
2. Now put the USB flash drive into the system and run the Wndows installer from the boot disk in the "text only" mode, without waiting for the graphical part of the installation.
