Hi, I have a Samsung Q1 and I've built a USB stick with BartPE and the installation files for XP Tablet PC edition. Everything goes fine, and when I invoke Winnt32.exe it does its thing, and exits. Thereafter, I reboot the Q1 and it starts text mode XP install - goes through the standard thing - asks me which partition etc, and then proceeds to copy files - what should happen next is that it should start the GUI mode installation part of XP - instead it keeps starting the text mode version and does the same thing as before - asks me which partition and copies the same files again - any ideas how I can get past this?

Thanks a million.

  1. its natural procedure of installation nothing 2 worry just say where 2 load system files after copying all files it will change to GUI mode


  2. Do not press any key (Where it ask press any key to boot from CD) when it restarts after completing the text mode.

    If it still doesn't work then enter BIOS setup and change the First Booting drive to hard disk instead of CD ROM.
