Hi all,

I have a Compaq nc4010 laptop which does not have a CDROM or Floppy.

I can't use a USB floppy as the BIOS does not recognise it.

What is the easiest way to get XP installed?

The hard drive is easily removed so I can drop files on to it.

I was hoping I might be able to do this to get a working install of DOS along with i386 folder so I can them start setup but I haven't managed to do this successfully yet.

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks.
