Create a pocket version of XP system - WIN PE system U disk version

Currently there are many U disk version of Windows PE system circulating on the Internet, are based on the simplified version of Windows 98/ME/XP and then add a third-party system The difference between the maintenance tools is that the integrated third-party tools are different. The more integrated third-party tools, the more practical they are. The corresponding installation volume is larger, generally between 200MB and 50MB. between. Such as 57MB "REBOOT", although it is small, it has provided all the common system maintenance tools, and the operation is simpler. The following describes how to install it on a USB flash drive.

The first thing to note is that making a USB flash drive system must ensure that your motherboard and USB flash drive (or MP3 player) support USB boot (there will be instructions in the general manual, please refer to it), and the motherboard Once the boot device is set to USB boot, these conditions are met to ensure that you can successfully create a USB flash drive system. The first step: first plug in the U disk, back up important files in the U disk to other places. Extract the “REBOOT.ISO” file from the CD-ROM of this issue, and extract it with WinRAR to get the “REBOOT.” folder. Open the “SETUP/USBOOT” folder inside, run “USBOOT.EXE” file open “USBOOT 1.68” window (there will be a warning prompt, no need to pay attention), select the U disk drive letter in the list, click below Click here to select the work mode & rdquo; option, select “ZIP mode & rdquo; in the menu, click & ldquo; start /OK /yes /yes & rdquo; button, when prompted & ldquo; please insert the U disk & rdquo When the U disk is unplugged and re-plugged into the computer, when prompted "Lead-type U disk production success", close the program and restart the computer. Figure 1 There will be a warning prompt, click the “OK” button. Figure 2 Select the U disk drive letter, select the ZIP mode, and click “Start”. Figure 3 pops up a warning window, prompting you to back up important files in the USB flash drive. Figure 4 Tips & nbsp; Please insert the U disk again rdquo;, unplug the U disk and plug it in. Figure 5 After the prompt is successfully created, restart the computer to check if the USB flash drive can be started. Tip: “USBBOOT” provides three modes: ZIP, HDD and FDD. The ZIP mode refers to emulating a USB flash drive into a ZIP drive. When booting from USB, the USB drive letter is A:. The HDD mode refers to emulating a USB flash drive as a hard disk. When booting from USB, the USB flash drive letter is C:. The FDD mode refers to emulating a USB flash drive as a floppy drive. After booting from USB, the USB drive letter is A:. Currently, motherboards that support USB booting mostly support ZIP mode. It has the best compatibility, so it is recommended to use it, and HDD and FDD modes can be tried when ZIP mode is not working properly. However, “USBOOT” cannot format a USB flash drive larger than 256MB into ZIP mode. If your U disk is larger than 256MB, you can use the partitioning tool included in the U disk drive CD to divide the U disk into two partitions. One of the partitions has a capacity of less than 256MB. After the partition is successfully displayed, two U disk drives will be displayed, and then Use “USBOOT” to format the small partition as “ZIP mode” If the MP3 player is used to make the U disk system, when all the MP3 players are in the ZIP mode, some MP3 players may have disk errors and cannot play music. For this case, the MP3 player can be partitioned to save the songs. In the large partition, you can ensure that the MP3 player can play music normally. Step 2: When restarting the computer, press the DEL key on the keyboard continuously to enter the COMS setting interface, select the second item “Advanced BIOS Features”, press the Enter key and select “First Boot Device”, then press the Enter key. Open the Select Startup Sequence window, select “USB-ZIP”, press the Enter key to set the motherboard to USB boot, press the F10 key, and press Enter to save the COMS settings. Then plug in the U disk to restart the computer, see if you can directly enter DOS (the screen will display A: or C: drive letter), if you can enter DOS, the next step you can install XP system to the U disk. If not, it means that the motherboard or U disk does not support USB booting, or which step is not set, and can be solved by re-operation. Tip: Some motherboards provide a one-button boot menu mode, you need to press the corresponding button to select boot from USB. For example, Biostar's Tforce 6100 AM2 motherboard, press F9 after booting, then select HIDE, press Enter and select USB device, then press Enter to boot from U disk. The COMS setting methods of different brands of motherboards are also different. For details, please refer to the motherboard manual. Figure 6 Enter CMOS settings, open "Advanced BIOS Features" Figure 7 Open "First Boot Device", set to USB boot Step 3: Re-enter the system, plug in and open the U disk (if the U disk is partitioned, then the following All operations are performed on the U disk partition where the system is to be installed), and all the files inside are deleted. Then open the “REBOOT.” folder and send the four files "RXPE.COM", "RXPE.IM", "RXPE.LDR", and "RXPE.STF" to the U disk and save them. Rename the “RXPE.LRD” file to “NTLDR” (no suffix, no quotation marks). Figure 8 Send the four files to the USB flash drive to save Figure 9 Rename the “RXPE.LRD” file to “NTLDR”; Step 4: Return to the “REBOOT” folder and open the “SETUP” folder. See a "NTBOOT.EXE" file, remember the path to the file, such as the path in this example is "E:\\REBOOT\\SETUP\\NTBOOT.EXE". Then click the "Start /Run" option to open the "Run" dialog box, enter "CMD", click the "OK" button to open the "Command Prompt" window. At the cursor, enter the following format “NTBOOT.EXE file path + space + U disk drive letter + colon”, for example, if the U disk drive letter is J, enter “ld:;E:\\REBOOT\\SETUP\\NTBOOT.EXE J at the cursor. :& quoquo; (without quotes, input in English state), if prompted after the carriage return "J: FAT", that means the operation is successful, the window can be closed. At this point the system has been successfully installed into the U disk.
