Format Usb Flash Drive Bootable Windows Xp

Small! Fast! Easy to grip and pull out! It makes a great bootable USB drive for Windows 10 installations. I bought 3. The other 2 are now Windows Recovery Sticks.

After I purchased this 16GB USB drive, I have been formatting it with Windows XP's Format, and HP's Flash Storage Tools, so far, no issues. I like the retractable USB plug design, but, on the other hand, worried about the durability of this kind of design. I have had my older Kingston DataTraveler 8GB USB drive with similar retractable design for more than a year, though, a bit loosen, still works.

The San Disk Flash drive works great and is compatible with Windows XP and Windows 7. The file transfer is very fast and the device works like a charm. I have read good reports about SanDisk memory sticks.

Perfect size for bootable flash drive

I moved o.s. and bootable disk to this drive and now windows starts up in five seconds instead of the 30-40 seconds it was taking with the HDD.

Will not work with Windows 7 XP.

I've been able to connect four Windows PCs (XP, 7, 8.1, 10) to an Epson all-in-one printer. Although my printer is wireless capable, I find USB connectivity more reliable and less frustrating. The packaged software (CD), as well as the included Installation Guide, are antiquated (Windows XP/Vista; Mac OS X) but were still useful for one of my connected PCs. Accessing the product manufacturer's website is required to obtain an up-to-date User Manual and to install applicable drivers for PCs with newer operating systems. This applies to Windows (7, 8.1, 10) and Mac (10.6 and above) with an available USB Type-A port. One 6-foot USB A-B cable is also included. Each of my PCs printed successfully to the one printer as intended.

Windows 7 64 bit has no trouble with the size of this drive. I partitioned this drive using GIUD however XP does not see it.And I'm not sure why? Ortherwise so far so good.

Good price, use it for a Windows 7 and a XP machine, no problems so far.

I use windows 8.1 quite often. On this mac, all drives (except the internal flash drive) are external. Windows runs great off Thunderbolt connected drives. You can have multiple window drives and select the one you want on boot by holding down the option key.
