Can I install Windows XP Pro off a 1GB flash drive
August 5th, 2016
I tried using Wintoflash with my 1GB flash drive but it wasn’t picking up operating system.. I excluded everything in the boot order except USB flash drive.
If i’m not mistaken, Windows XP fits on a CD with a size of 700MB, right? It should work on a 1GB flash drive.
Edit: Maybe this can help?

I assumed 1Gig would be enough but according to various sites I either need 2 or 4GB

Yes, you can. Make sure you format your USB stick properly beforehand, because if you don’t – it may not be bootable.
HP provides a set of tools for this purpose, and they work on other brands as well:
You can use that tool to format your USB drive and sort your operating system out on it. If you’re unsure, hit up a search in the helpdesk section about bootable USB sticks, I’ve seen many passing by the past months. Good luck.
