    Have you tried another PenDrive?? Is this one recommended by forum users as working "backup" device or PenDrive working with XP installer??

    It has worked for others

    I also have a PNY mSD card (with sd adapter) but that won't work will it?

    If this Pendrive works in other PCs you can try to upgrade BIOS then and give it a go again...
