A computer's hard drive is unformatted. There are two USB drives: a 128MB one used as a boot disk and a 2GB one used to store system files. My intention is to first boot the machine with the 128MB USB drive and then perform a clean install of WinXP - sp2 system using the 2GB USB drive. Now the problem is that the machine can boot but cannot find the 2GB USB drive, so the installation cannot be carried out. Is there anyone who can do this? Thanks!

Who has such a USB boot disk? Please post one, thanks!

Can a 2GB USB flash drive not boot?

Is it also not recognized under DOS?

Just make a bootable disk with 2GB directly. Otherwise, you may need to load USB drivers to recognize the 2GB USB flash drive.
