HOW TO MAKE A FLASH DRIVE/USB KEY MANUALLY:
  • Typing "diskpart" (Don't need quotes) at the Start Menu.
  • Typing "list disk" (Don't need quotes) //command to find the drive with appropriate size.
  • Typing "select disk 1" (Don't need quotes) //where the "1" is actually the corresponding number of your USB drive. Make sure you choose the correct flash drive if you have more than one of the same size.
  • Typing "clean" (Don't need quotes) //removes all partitions.
  • Typing "create partition primary" (Don't need quotes) //bootable partition.
  • Typing "active" (Don't need quotes).
  • Typing "format fs=ntfs quick" (Don't need quotes) //can use fat32 if all files on drive are something like 3gb or smaller. You should not need a boot sector on a usb drive, most motherboards allow booting to usb drives.
  • Typing "assign" (Don't need quotes) //command gives the USB drive a drive letter, making it easy to access from Windows Explorer.
  • You are done with diskpart, type "exit" (Don't need quotes).

Then you can copy everything from the Windows ME installation CD/ISO onto the USB key (a simple drag and drop will do). I would not reccommend extracting directly from CD/ISO to flash drive. It will take forever, and burn up your drive. Instead, extract to hard drive first, then copy or cut/paste to the drive. Make sure you do not put the files in a subdirectory or the drive will not boot.

when installing from USB boot and enter bios setup (usually DEL/F2 key on bootup) Find where it lists the hard disk boot order. (usually some kind of boot section) Select hard disks and put the usb drive at the top of the queue with the C drive you install to just below it. Save and exit bios (usually F10).

The installation will now proceed as usual—but faster. You can remove the usb flash drive after the first setup reboot, it won't use it anymore.
