The bootable USB is an amazing option for you to install Windows XP without a CD Rom or any Floppy drive, just plug into the computer the USB which is bootable and windows setup is available in it and then starts windows setup normally as you do it from a CD ROM.

The other option is DOS which is quiet difficult for those guys who are not well concerned with IT field and they do not know about DOS system. I am sharing a snap of the bootable USB which will help you if you want to purchase like it:

Mamun,

If your copy of Windows XP came pre-installed on the computer and the computer manufacturer has provided the CD, hey must have save a restore copy of Windows XP on the hard disk for future usage. You can copy this to a CD and reinstall Windows XP on the computer. Back up all your personal data before performing the following steps to start Windows XP installation. Also, locate the Windows XP product key before installation. This is a 25 character alphanumeric key used for installation and can be located on the sticker on the laptop.

  1. Open My Computer and click C: drive (Or the driver where Windows is installed)
  2. Click to open the Windows folder and open the i386 file (Sometimes C:i386).
  3. Locate the winnt32.exe file.
  4. Double click to open it and follow the instructions.
  5. Accept the terms and conditions and enter the product key when prompted.
  6. This will re-install Windows on the computer.

If your are unable to locate the recovery partition on the computer, contact your laptop manufacturer to obtain a recovery CD.

Hope this helps.

Cheers, 

Dayna

You can use a external optical drive which you can insert through the USB port.

You can also create a bootable USB Flash drive with Windows XP on it.

Just simply download WinToFlash and then install it on your computer.

Insert your bootable USB FLash disk and then follow the on-screen instructions.
