jaclaz Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 You had Windows 8You tried to install XP using Win2flashTo continue:You ignored what the Win2flash tool intended scope is (and its instructions/documentation) and managed to attempt making your internal disk an "install disk for XP" .Now a couple of questions:You mentioned a WinPE, which WinPE is it?Is it on a boot CD/DVD or on a USB stick? (or however can you move it to a USB stick or other NON-read-only device?)jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
