I want to install Windows XP on My desktop computer (only XP) but my cd drive has gone bust.

I have tried to search for installation tutorials but I found only those in which people tell me how to install it ON the pen drive rather than FROM the pendrive.

Please help out! Thanks in Advance

the easiest way:

WinToFlash starts a wizard that will help pull over the contents of a windows installation CD or DVD and prepare the USB drive to become a bootable replacement for the optical drive.

WinToFlash is freeware and portable.
