I downloaded.iso image of Windows Xp Sp3(544 MBs) but it is not writing onto USB with any kind of software. It errors that i386 is missing. Can you give me the correct source of windows xp sp3 insatallation files? If you have a genuine Windows XP ISO file on your computer all you need to do is my Step 2 above.

Below is a link to a post on bleeping computer that has a link to one, scroll down to the post by Mike_Walsh near the bottom of the page. I recently used this one to recover an old HP (2003 vintage) that had a hard drive failure. This machine was used for a video camera/monitor setup on the production floor of a client, and was not connected to the LAN or the internet in any way. I scanned it with Sophos and Malwarebytes and it came up clean and has worked without issue for about 4 months now. I will warn you though, when you transfer the iso to a bootable USB, do not change the volume label that Rufus auto generates. If you do, it will not self activate correctly.

If you feel uneasy with this, you can still purchase a full retail version here, where they will send you a download link about 10 minutes after purchase.
