Hi all
after nearly 100 hours of searching in the dark I succeed to build a STABLE XP Embedded image which runs direct from USB drive (HD, Stick) as BOOTDEVICE und looks very like XPPro (Directx9c...ALL XP Games are running) but only 200- 500MB large. There is a page from Microsoft http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/device/storage/usb-boot.mspx and now I am shure, that they didnt tell the truth. XP works wonderfull with Bootdrive USB and I CAN'T understand, why they make such a side, because they must know that it is possible (or perhaps, because they know?). I know from udoc, that they have a USB solution with a SCSI miniportdriver, working only on their USB flash drives. My solution costs nothing and works anywhere...hihihihi. I am interested whether any of this forum has tried something like before. Nice to hear from You Dietmar -------------------- |
