WinPE is basically a smaller version of Windows and used for repairing Windows, Installing Windows, or upgrading to Windows. WinPE in Windows XP build 2296 starts only a command prompt window displaying a small dialog for selecting a location to copy the file pcntpci5.sys and in 16 color setting so this is very very weird when Windows PE runs in 16 color setting while in other versions like Windows 10 PE runs normally in true colors.

What is petousb?
PeToUSB is a GUI Win32 application that will partition, format and makebootable to XP/W2K3 a USB Flash Disk (UFD). A lot of utilities that say they can do this, actually cant. PeToUSB does not make the device DOS bootable, it makes it XP bootable (ie: the bootstrap code will look for NTLDR). A lot of improvements have been made since version 2. Check the change log for details. But in short its more compatible with more devices, and easier to use with more functionality. New Features/Changes: o Rewrites the MBR code just in case its corrupted. This option can be disabled if desired. o On Removable media, the partition is completely rewritten. o Backup/Restore MBR. o View disk information. o Assign drive letters. o Automatic notification of device arrival/removal. o Now supports WinPE builds as well. To make a UFD bootable requires it to be formatted to FAT16, the partition set as bootable AND the volume boot sector id to be set to 0x80. If all this is done the UFD should be bootable on any system whose BIOS can boot to USB-HDD. Some UFDs partition tables have been set to a starting offset of 32 sectors, this will not be bootable under USB-HDD. It seems that USB-ZIP requires this, USB-HDD requires offset of 63 sectors. If your UFD still wont boot after this type of format then either your UFDs chipset isn't capable or the BIOS on the system you are trying to boot is either set incorerectly or incapable of booting to UFD. But PeToUSB does more than just make a UFD bootable. It will also copy all the required files from a successful BartPE build, to the UFD. The all that remains is for you to boot the stick on a system. Instructions ------------ o Build you BartPE/WinPE installation. No need to check the CD Record box. o Insert your USB stick into the slot. o BACK UP ANY DATA, BECAUSE WE ARE GOING TO FORMAT IT! o Use Tools/Backup MBR to make a backup of the disks MBR. (This can be restored later if things don't go as excpected) o Remove any security options on the UFD as this will mess up any booting process. o Extract PeToUSB.exe from its zip archive and run it. o First we want to select the USB stick (Destination Drive). In the window check your USB stick has been recognised. There is a drop list containing all the detected removable disks. If you cant see it. Then click the Refresh button. Make sure you select the drive that you want to use. o Next we want to get the path to our PE installation. Click the [...] button and choose the path. The OK on the Browse Dialog will not display until you select the correct folder. o Next we want to choose our options. For the first run we need to choose:- o Enable Disk Format o Enable File Copy (if you are only wanting to format then leave this) o Now we are ready to format the drive and copy the PE to the stick. Click Start button and answer any confirmation boxes. o Copying the files to a UFD takes a lot longer than to an IDE drive. So don't worry about it taking some time. Just watch the progress bar for an indication of how long it will take. o After successfully completing the above operations. Your stick is now ready to be booted on the target system. SOME NOTES ON DISKS ------------------- PeToUSB will list fixed and removable disks. On the following conditions:- It is LESS than 2GB. (It wont format FAT16 > 2Gb) It is NOT the current system drive. It is NOT the drive where PeToUSB is running from. If it is a USB HardDisk (eg FixedMedia) then it must have its partitions already defined, as PeToUSB will not partition these devices due to possibilty of user losing their data when the partitions are altered. And the first paritition starting at Sector 63 and being less that 2Gb in size. If it fails to format then check that the whole partition is enclosed in the first 2Gb of the physical disk. The format function will have problems if not. SOME NOTES ON SETTING BIOS OPTIONS ---------------------------------- Im no expert at compatablity of BIOSs with UFDs. But I have learnt a few things... o In the BIOS boot sequence, set USB-HDD as the first boot device. o Then make sure the Boot Other Devices is disabled. o Save the BIOS settings. And power down. o Stick you UDF in the slot and powerup. These notes relate to AWARD-BIOS. Other BIOS manufacturers will have different but similar settings. You may need to experiment! System Requirements ------------------- PeToUSB will run on windows XP/2003/BartPE and most 2000Pros It requires about 3Mb ram to run. USB Disk Minimum Size of 256MB (dependant on size of PE build) USB STICKS TESTED ===================== This software and instruction is brought to you freely and in good faith.

How do I recover lost data on my hard drive?
Data recovery isn't done in just a snap of your fingers. So if you have for example a damaged hard drive and you want to recover your data, it is still possible to have chances of reviving your dead hard drive. You can save your data (except if the files have already been corrupted) using a bootable disk. It will be quite easier if you have a backup of your important data but if such case of not having a backup and yet you found the components in your drive still functioning, you can recover data using a bootable CD/DVD of data recovery software - EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard WinPE Edition. This will come in handy when you want to recover data after a system crash or boot problem.
How do you boot a computer from an USB drive?
Another user has edited this: My laptop is a HP Pavilion Notebook running Windows 10 Home x64. To boot from a USB drive on that, you need to go into Settings, select Update and Security and then Recovery. Click 'Reboot now'. It should take you to a menu. Select Use a device then select your USB name.
