Also, this guide is for the install of Windows XP only (32bit), if you would like to install an OS like Windows 7 on your Netbook, then look here If you would like to install XP 64bit then you may receive errors during this guide's setup process. I wanted to write a new complete "Noobs" guide for people who might need to do this in the future (plus this guide will make things a tad easier if I have to do this again). I just recently had to go through this myself, and the guide I was following was very short to the point. Well, before you go running off to the shops to buy an external CD drive (that you will probably only need for this one task), you can get the job done all the same using a USB flash drive. If there's been a big irreversible mistake on your Netbook or maybe you bought it secondhand without an OS installed, you're going to need to fix it.and unless you have a spare external CD drive to hand, it can be tricky. A Netbook can be a very handy replacement for a laptop sometimes, with their lightness and small size, but the fact that they don't come with a built in optical drive can really hurt when trying to perform certain tasks, like the re-installation of an OS for example.
