TECH: Installing an OS via a USB Stick on a netbook

Occasionally in my business there comes a time when I have a netbook to repair. In which case if the IDE controller doesn't work with the usual external CD drive I have then I need to resort to installing XP via a USB stick.

Thankfully I ended up finding a good tutorial online that uses a tool known as RMPrepUSB to create the bootable disk.
