istaling windows

[Eduard]

I try to reinstall windows on a cube kpc568 notebook that has no cd rom. It
says that it cannot install windows because I do not have a cd rom. I try to
install it from an usb stick.
What can I do?

If the bios has an option for booting from USB

I'd plug in an external USB cdrom

What type of installation media do you have? If you have a Windows XP
installation CD, you will need a CD ROM to get the operating system off the
disk.
