    All you need to do is to change the boot order in your BIOS. If you have a socket 478 or greater motherboard then most allow you to select USB FDD or USB HDD as a boot device. Provided that XP has been copied correctly to the stick, it will be accessed as if you had inserted the XP CD.

    Burn it to a CD, if it's an ISO or other image file. The last time I checked, you can't install Windows straight from a USB drive. This was about a year ago though.
