Hi, i recently acquired a dell latitude (older p3 860mhz) and it has no cd, floppy drive so i cant install windows a traditional way. My question is how can i install windows using my ide to usb cable?
What i did was partition the drive, put the contents of my windows xp disk on one partition and the other partition i hope to some how get it to boot into dos or a command prompt in order to activate the xp partition and begin installation.
Also i saw many ways of doing this but it requires me to actually connect the drive to my computers ide channel and not through usb.
Any suggestions are appreciated this is driving me crazy lol
Thanks in advance
