Hi I have sucsessfully installed xp on my netbook and it runs no problem but booting is another thing if i remove the usb pen i used to install xp i get the following error windows could not start because of a computer hardware configuration failure could not read from the selected boot disk. check boot path and disk hardware Please check the windows documentation about hardware disk configuration and your hardware refrences manuals for additional information Now having said that if i put the usb pen i used to isntall xp back in and go to step 2 it loads windows xp NOT the setup it just loads windows then i can remove the pen and go about my day but if i restart or turn of the netbook i need to insert the pen again and go to step 2 to boot windows Any way round this other than walking around with a usb pen sticking out my netbook day in day out
