[QUOTE="Paul, post: 14237771"] If you install WinXP on a USB flash drive, during the boot of that installation, the USB bus does a reset, and the boot process loses communication with the USB flash drive. There is an involved procedure, that changes the USB bus to be a member of boot bus extender class. By doing that, the USB bus is commissioned at a time that resetting the bus won't hurt anything. And then, apparently, the OS will finish booting. I haven't tried it, because I don't really have a usage for the idea. Due to the activation issue, moving the key around won't do much good. If you want solid state, put the OS on an SSD. Paul [/QUOTE]
