So as the title says I've been having troubles installing Windows XP SP 1 onto my Asus Eee PC Netbook. Since the netbook lacks a disc drive I followed This tutorial on using a flash drive as a bootable disk. I've been successful up until the second part of formatting the partition. It can't install any of the files starting with bootvid.dll and if I skip through all the files or abort the install, windows won't boot up saying it can't find the necessary files in the kernel or that it's missing hal.dll.
I've searched around the internet and comments section of that tutorial and haven't been able to find anything that helps. Just checking if anyone here has some insight to the problem or if I just need to bite the bullet and shell out some DOSH to buy a external disc drive.
