O.P. Installing XP from a USB.
Hi.

On my laptop booting from cd is impossible as the drive doesn't work. I would like to install xp from  a usb, and ive googled and i have tried 3 methods, one of the methods succesfully lead me to the windows setup screen, and everything was fine, except when i got to the part where it showed the drives that i want to install windows xp to, all i saw was my 4gb usb, and not my actaul hard drive.

Does anyone know a succesfull way how to do this? PS, i want to do this because do this every few months to clean out my harddrive and make my computer fast again, but this time my cd drive doesn't work.
