The option here is worth a shot if, like me, you can't get the WSUS tool to work. I've tried time and time again to use the WSUS Offline Updater tool that supports XP, and it barely pulls any updates.
Actually getting all of the updates is a whole other can of worms, unfortunately. Copy the Windows XP mbr to the USB drive. Now copy the files from your Windows XP ISO to the USB drive.
#How to make a usb drive bootable for xp how to#
If you're really interested in slipstreaming a DVD, there are proper guides on how to do that ( ideally using nLite). Create a bootable Windows XP USB drive: Download 'ms-sys'. When booting from the USB stick, you need to leave your boot sequence to boot from hard drive first (otherwise the assignment of drive letters goes off).
The only time I've gotten XP to successfully boot from USB was by using Easy2Boot's specific XP options. You know, when mobo driver development for XP finally stopped.Īnd from experience, generally you can't just use Rufus with XP ISOs (let alone coping them from File Explorer like a psychopath).
#How to make a usb drive bootable for xp drivers#
You do realize that there have been literally hundreds of thousands of PCs with Core 2 CPUs and Windows XP, many of which ran for years on end in a school or business environment, right? Generally XP drivers are great up until Haswell (or Broadwell, since that shared the 9x series chipset) and AMD's FX chips. This might be one of the single most incorrect things I've ever seen on this forum. From the menu, navigate to Tools > create bootable USB. its much newer (7 years newer), and the chipset support might not be goodĢ you can just mount the iso in windows 10 (like b ydouble clicking it) and copying the files to a usb would work. Create a bootable USB drive for Windows XP: Insert the USB drive to proper port and launch Power ISO.
