Hi there I just bought my AAO 3 days ago and had spent last 2 days installing wins xp with the same Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) prob when installing using usb drive. Spent 2 days using diff type of usb drives incl usb sd card readers, actual size xp home and prof, nlite xp, mini xp, but to no prevail. Till I borrowed another OEM xp home cd from another friend, nlite it, tala no more BSOD and it install smoothly. So, the main culprit of the BSOD during installation is most probably the XP CD or source u used, not the usb drive or drivers issues. So just give it a try by using another XP CD either nlite it or use the actual version, shd be able to work. Cheers.
