reboot and run "test disk" (or whatever its called) to verify the cd burn is good and that there are no issues with transfer/data/drive errors, etc.</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13px; font-family: 'lucida console', sans-serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;"><br></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13px; font-family: 'lucida console', sans-serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;">This will help you narrow down the potential causes.</div><div><br></div> <div style="font-family: 'lucida console', sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div dir="ltr"> <hr size="1"> <font size="2" face="Arial"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">From:</span></b> Hubert Peery <w5gyx@allegiance.tv><br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b>

The xp machine doesn’t have a usb boot just reads them. Have tried to use plop but doesn’t boot either.
