Thanks for the helpful video! I followed your steps and tried to boot from the USB on my Asus T100. I see two selectable options for drives; option 1 doesn't work, but option 2 does. However, I get a different screen than what you show in the video: i get an aGFM menu with different options (looks like a boot drive menu with tools/utilities, but no install options). Any suggestions?

Some AV software will block writes to the boot sector of a USB drive. Either configure your AV software to allow full access to the USB drive or temporarily disable it and reboot and try again. e.g. Acronis often installs such USB boot code write blocking services (even if you are installing a different Acronis product!

You are probably UEFI booting. XP only works in legacy/MBR/BIOS mode not UEFI. You must enable CSM legacy booting and boot to the USB drive. Note that XP does not work on modern (last 8 years or so) computers, so it may pr may not work on a newish computer even in CSM legacy mode.

James, a few Qs. 1)When I extracted e2b and prepared usb, several other programs were also installed. Is there any way I can prevent this. 2) I can’t locate a clean XP iso and MS states that one was never created by them. Do you have a link to recommend for this. 3) I’m trying to load XP on an HP 800 mini Gen 3 that will not load from usb and I don’t see the iso. Any ideas are greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Update - I created a partition on my C drive to install XP on - I'm fine with both XP and 7 being on this machine. Now on Easy2Boot I can see hd 0,0, 0,1 and 0,2. However I can't seem to point Easy2Boot at the new partition in the second step - if I type in hd0, Windows 7 boots up. If I type in hd0,2 I get an error.

Windows XP was invented before Windows 7/8/10/11 so it does not know anything about those OS's. So you cannot install Win 7 and then install XP, because XP does not know how to dual boot an OS that it hasn't seen before. If you want both you should first install XP and then install Windows 7/8/10.
