I don't see Tiny XP there.

It's under OCA_OS images. Dbl click and go into my folder (rickss69).

I found it exactly where you said, only right before you said it. Sorry for being so blind, or not looking hard enough.:blush:

But what am I going to do with this iso that I couldn't do with the other?

Uh, maybe this one will install? :Dizzy: I know nothing of these Platinum, 10 or Black versions...all I can tell you is Tiny XP v9 works well and works without fail. :good:

Bootsect was the problem, or I am doing something wrong I think.......I didn't even get to the iso yet.

I'm trying to make this flash drive bootable to xp installation.

My head is about spinning right now.....this shit gets me frustrated, but on a happier note the coolant is staying right @ -30 C.

I appreciate the help Rick:thumbsup:

What exactly do YOU do with the iso? I am d/l rev 9 now.

Sorry, but I know nothing of usb or flash drives. If you manage to get that far the install should be quick once you set the boot order in bios. I usually just install #1 option on the list with all the drivers and explorer.

Thanks bro. I actually figured out the whole problem though. It's always something......in the instructions of what to type in the command prompt it does not tell you to type a colon after the drive letter.

Maybe I should just know that, but even so I was following the instructions so WTF?

It still won't work with the rev 10 I d/l off PB though. So I'm just waiting for the rev 9 from OCA FTP to be done.

Thanks for the help brothers. :thumbsup: Until next time..................:cool3:

For some reason the d/l stopped @ 429/700 MB? Now I have to spend like 2-3 more hours waiting for it...great.

All day to do a xp install.:thumbdown:
