Re: USB Thumb drive fails to image new classmate

what you need to do is get a copy of windows xp (on a thumb drive), then re-format and partition the hard drive on your classmate, you only need 1 partition. first, set the BIOS to boot off the flash drive, then it will show partitions, delete the partition, and make a new one, make sure that the format you select is NTFS. after re-partitioning it, install windows, setting it up with developer as the admin account after installing, it will reboot off the hard drive. then you make another account, this will be driver. once that's done, you can install the driver station and dashboard. all programs you put on it need to be transferred via flash drive until you have a browser in.

in other words, do a vannilla XP install
or you could borrow an image key from another team
