Hi, I'm having a hard time with what I think to be a very simple problem. After reading the guide, I decided to take a chance with the usb winxp installation so i :
1.- got a usb memory stick
2.- downloaded the usb multiboot "toolkit" USB_MultiBoot_10.zip
3.- decompressed in C:\USB_MultiBoot_10
4.- tried to run USB_MultiBoot_10.cmd by double clicking. Since a resembling CMD window just flashed and closed, I decided to execute cmd, get to the C:\USB_MultiBoot_10 folder and try running USB_MultiBoot_10.cmd
5.- This message displays:
" 'find' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. "
-After reading the documentation I think that I have done nothing wrong so I really beg for some help! I'm not a Windows neophite but still can't get this to work...
*By the way, i'm running WinXP SP3..
THANKS FOR YOUR TIME!

Check if you have find.exe in \windows\system32, it's probably not there. If that's the case- get it from XP_CD\I386\.
expand xp_cd\I386\find.ex_ %windir%\system32\
where xp_cd is path to XP setup files.

Hi ilko, I searched for the find.exe file and it was in place so i wondered what would happen if i copied it to the C:\USB_MultiBoot_10 directory and it did start to run. Then it also lacked the route for cscript.exe so again I searched for it and pasted the file in the C:\USB_MultiBoot_10 dir... is this normal?
Anyway, you helped me a lot. Thanks so much!

You don't have to copy those files find.exe, cscript.exe etc. to usb_multiboot folder. The command interpreter is simply missing the path to them.
Run this program, it should correct the broken path values.

If it does not- open cmd and type 'path'. Copy- paste the output here, or make a screenshot.
