Thank you so much for this detailed tutorial! I had spent the last two weeks and hours and hours of research and attempts to get XP back on my PC. I've gotten the vintage bug and decided to pull out my old Dell Dimension 8400 Pentium 4. At some point in the past I had installed Windows 7 over XP and I wanted XP back on the hard drive. I believe the SATA drivers were my biggest obstacle. The first time I followed your tutorial I got to a point where the drive wasn't detected. I decided to format the thumb drive and follow your steps more carefully the second time. Sure enough, I didn't unpack the Easy2boot contents onto the thumb drive the first time properly. The second time everything went much smoothly and I'm proud to say I'm looking at a fresh XP desktop! I can't wait to fire up some old games on it now, so thank you!

Thank you! Thank you! THANK YOU!!! I have spent my entire day attempting to load XP onto a Dell Mini 1011. I used another all-in-one utility that was supposed to make it easy. After about 10 attempts thinking that I was messing something up: Rirst MS Setup couldn't find the EULA so I edited the winnt.sif and got past that error, then Setup couldn't format the HDD -- I never got past THAT one. I figured, "Forget it!" and attempted an Ubuntu install... THAT failed as well. Then I found your tutorial and it SAVED my sanity. So, once again thank you so much!

+illenick So it did not install and did not get to the Desktop so it did not install flawlessy, it blue-screened during the second GUI stage of installing XP (usually there is a 'x minutes remaining' countdown - it is useful to note what the last time is before it BSODs). If this is the same point each time you install, it may tell us where the problem lies. However, I would do a Memory test (Utilities - Memory Test on Easy2Boot) and also a disk test e.g. Hirens Boot CD ISO and run a disk test. You still did not tell me the BSOD error number...?

@@m.farhana.rahman3372 XP adds the driver into the XP install. Its exactly the same as you pressing F6 during Setup and adding a driver from an OEM driver floppy disk, the driver is added into the XP install files on the target disk so it is there on reboot to XP from the hard disk. Easy2Boot (DPMS version) contains all XP 32-bit mass storage drivers, that is why the DPMS version is a lot bigger than the non-DPMS version. E2B picks the correct mass storage drivers and makes a virtual F6 floppy disk drive in memory and sets the default driver to the same INF file so it is automatically used. In fact, E2B sets up two driver floppies (fd0 and fd1), one with the Firadisk virtual disk driver for the ISO file to appear as a CD set as the default driver and one with the correct storage driver set as the default driver - XP will then automatically install both drivers.

The second I organized the folders like you had them _ISO/Windows/ etc and now I just get one line of GRUB4DOS version, date, mem: 636K/898M/0M, End: 36873A and that's it. My .iso file I got online (actually tried 2 different ones) and extracted it using winRAR. Neither showed the files organized like yours.

The usual reason is because you did not prepare the USB drive correctly - you need to either use the Easy2Boot Make_E2B.exe GUI or use RMPrepUSB and tick the 'Boot as C: (2 PTNS) option so that the USB drive has two partitions on it. Since you give no details whatsoever on how you made the USB drive (or even if you are booting from a USb drive!) it is difficult to guess at what else the problem could be!

This installs XP onto a SATA or IDE or SCSI hard disk which you usually find inside a PC or notebook. It does not install XP onto a USB drive. XP requires drivers to be installed which matches the hardware you are booting from. So you can use this process to install 32-bit XP SP3 onto an old notebook and then use that with your auto software. Note that newer notebooks do not work with XP, so you need to find an older one (preferable one that originally had XP or Vista or Win7 installed). HTH.

No. QEMU is an emulator. You can use it to install XP to a virtual hard disk. If you have a Windows 7/8/10 system and you boot to the E2B USB stick and try to install XP, then you will not be able to boot to Win7/8/10 afterwards. It is much easier to first install the oldest OS (XP) and then install the next oldest (Win7), etc. That way, you will get a dual-boot system. if you install Win7 first and then XP, then the XP boot code will replace the Win7 boot code because Win7 had not been invented when XP came out, so the XP installer does not know anything about any later OS's!

My laptop can see the HDD, but XP install can only see the USB drive. Will DPMS help find the hard drive?

Do you mean will using E2B with the XP 32-bit Driver Pack for Mass Storage (disk) devices help? - Probably - why not just try it? I cannot foresee the future!

What is 'this iso'? Standard XP SP3 ISO does not have OEMPREINSTALL=YES. Try WinSetupFromUSB. Explain the problem clearly. Usually E2B can install but the install may not be fully automated correctly. Online Chat help is available on the E2B website.

Windows 7 does not require 2 steps. Only XP requires 2 steps. For Windows 7 ISOs, place ISO file in \_ISO\WIN7 folder.

Yes. The error message shows you the expected name and path = /_ISO/e2b/grub/DPMS/Driverpack.ini . You don't need to rename anything. Just download and extract the E2B+DPMS files to your USB drive. Here is the link dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7841017/Easy2Boot_v1.28_DPMS.zip

The ISO is loaded into memory in Step 2 so that firadisk driver can find it and load it as a virtual CD. If try it after doing Step 1, you can still do Step 2 afterwards. If it installed OK for you then it should be fine.

Name it driverpack.ini. If using Windows, Use (Save as * . *) and not *.txt or you will get driverpack.ini.txt. You can download E2B+driverpack files in one download now. See the 72a - Download section.

Hi Steve... It's posible to install Windows XP over a imgPTN format file? I think that well is more simple. I try to copy directly to \Windows\XP\ folder but i get a BSOD. Using the F6 method + firadisk, only shows my SSD partitions. I'm using a SSD to boot and install over USB 2.0 Thanks. (:
@steve6375

Making a .imgPTN file would give exactly the same result as if just copying the files to a USB drive directly. It doesn't work. Use E2B+DPMS and a vanilla SP3 Microsoft ISO and it should work. If you want to use a .imgPTN file, then use a working USB flash drive as the source for the .imgPTN file. You can make a USB Flash drive using WinSetupFromUSB (which has DPMS) or Rufus (which does not have DPMS).

Not one I have come across personally, but it seems many people have! Google for the error message and you will see - common fixes seem to be (1) test and fix bad RAM, (2) Change BIOS settings. It might also be worth trying a different ISO.

@@steve6375 After trying about a half dozen different XP ISOs I gave up. Fortunately though, I found an XP ISO with SATA drivers and updates up to November 2013 online and a scan of it from AVG 2019 warranted no warnings at all so I burned it to a blank CD with ImgBurn and gave it a go and it worked. Whoever uploaded that ISO included nearly 50 MB of SATA drivers and mine was among the many included so now I'm running old reliable Windows XP in AHCI mode with no issues whatsoever and its just about as snappy as Windows 7 is, which really impressed me. Thanks for your response anyway man. KZitem didn't even give a notification to my phone.
