How to re-install Windows XP on your Asus EeePC using a USB pen drive
Loading...
Uploaded by steve6375 on Apr 10, 2010
If you have an Asus EeePC which came with Windows XP and want to re-install XP from a USB drive because you don't have a USB DVD drive, this video shows you how to make a bootable USB pen drive from your restore DVD. You can then boot your EeePC from the USB pen and re-install Windows XP. If you still have the original C: and D: partitions, you can just restore XP from the Ghost image to the C: partition and leave any files on the D: partition intact.
Note: This will destroy all data on the hard drive or partition, do not boot from it on any PC other than your EeePC!
You can get RMPrepUSB from http://www.rmprepusb.tk
BEFORE you boot your EeePC from the USB stick, enter the BIOS by pressing F2 a lot after switch on, go to Advanced IDE Configuration tab and change Configure SATA as -- IDE (NOT AHCI). Next go to BOOT tab and change Quiet Boot -- DISABLE. Save settings and exit. Then press ESC and select USB as boot device.

@funnyvideosforlive If you have an ethernet connection choose LAN, if you have ADSL WiFi choose DSL

@steve6375 Figured it out! two images for two drives! the first one, the most important one goes the disk 1 and the second, small 800mb one to the second drive! it's as easy as that! by the way sorry for almost SPAMMING you but i'm a computer rooky, but i'm trying to learn. you are a great helper. but now i have ANOTHER QUESTION for you. with which connection can i use my WIFI? DSL or LAN? you have to choose between these in the windows setup.

@funnyvideosforlive Try again - maybe just put 1st image on and see if that boots? You will just have to keep trying. What do you mean by nothing happened (no text on screen, no error message, did not boot - what?).

@steve6375 uh ooh, Steve, it seems like i'm in trouble again...
I again wanted to reinstall my windows, so i did everything you did in the video again, launched GHOST from the usb, selected the first ghost image, directed it to the first disk ( C partition ), and put it on. after the recovery was completed, i AGAIN did the same with the second ghost image. after that one was fully recovered, i restarted the computer. but nothing happened! what must i do?! please steve, help me!

@steve6375 your right. be the code is absolutely correct ;) i tried with and without capitals etc. but it keeps giving that error. i was mad and typed 000000000000 in the box. it started connecting but nothing happened. i put in the correct key again, and suddenly it tried to connect but it keeps on saying getting network adress. just like i put in an incorrect code! strange...

@funnyvideosforlive That sounds like the password prompt for a WPA or WEP wireless connection?? I would check code is correct and has not been changed...

@steve6375 i used both. when i put them to the larger partition it didnt work because i messed things up a bit the previous time, but when i just put it to C, it worked when i first used the 1.3 one, and then the 800mb one. by the way, i'm now trying to connect that netbook to the internet, but it says something like it depends on y ou connection if it is 128 or 256 bits. please insert 8 to 63 ascii or 64 hexadiagonal signs. thats what popped up after i put in the correct code.

@funnyvideosforlive No problem - did you just use the 1st ghost file? The other file may be for another partition perhaps? Why not checkout my website for other projects - e.g. run Ubuntu or Windows 8 from a bootable USB!
