I have a FireLite 60GB USB drive that I am trying to install Windows XP on to boot my laptop from. I have been able to run through the install of XP to the USB Drive. After the initial install, when the laptop reboots, I see the Windows XP logo and then I get a blue screen that a error has occured and the machine has been halted. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks is advance,

Ari
 
This occurs because the USB Drivers are not loaded at the beginning of the boot sequence, thus it just dies...
