How to make a bootable win xp sp3, memory card?

[Cayman87]

Hi, please give me step by step instructions, to create a bootable memory card. I tried rufus 1.3.4, but winxp setup stops at"setup is starting windows"window and throws a BSOD. due to monetary problem i cannot buy a cd drive, and i have a bunch of mem cards. The OS is windows 8 dp (which is corrupt), hdd is ok, and i am usb booting my pc using plop boot manager. tell me what to do? I am deaf and sorry if my english is bad.

A quick Google search landed me on this page http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch001366.htm
Figured it was fitting. The same process would apply for a memory card.

Finally i solved it myself. Here is What i did.
1. Formatted my mem. Card in NTFS and burned the bootable xp sp3 iso using rufus.
2. Plugged in my usb and restarted my pc.
3. Went to BIOS scrolled to Boot Settings, and 'surprise' my usb was listed in hard disks sub-menu right below my sata hdd as "mass storage device 1.0".
3. I changed hdd order and set it as
1.mass storage device
2.my sata hdd

4. I then changed the boot device priority and set hdd as first boot device.
5. Saved bios settings and rebooted.
6. Pressed the del/space key and Eureka, i was able to completely setup xp sp3 without any problem.

Note:my bios/motherboard was made in 2007. Please somebody refer my post to others, so others do not get frustrated, while trying the same.
And mark it as solved
