How-to: Installing XP to Aigo P8860 MID

Yeah!

Click here to see more

Steps:

Delete, make new and format the first drive/partition to fat32 or nfts. I used Vista dvd on external usb dvd drive.


Make BartPE usb disk - copy i386 folder from XP disk to that usb stick. Boot with that usb stick.


On BartPE, click start, run and type: Run E:\i386\winnt32.exe /syspart:C: /tempdrive:C: /makelocalsource


XP install software starts and ends after copying files.. shutdown, take the usb stick out and boot..

..Grub bootloader appears..
type:

grub> chainloader +1 ...and hit enter key
grub> boot ...and hit enter key

Installing XP continues.. takes about 45 minutes.

Done!

Now wait for XP drivers ;)


Here is a detailed guide using BartPE

..and here is someone lucky using the Aigo with full set of XP drivers

Asus CEO interviewed; Touchscreen Eee PC is coming

Continue reading..

LAPTOP magazine interviewed ASUS CEO Jerry Shen, and among other good news, there was a toucheee one:

Joanna Stern: Windows 7 is really being touted for its multi-touch capabilities. Can you share any plans for touch Eee PCs?

ASUS CEO Jerry Shen: Some of the models will have this function next year, but not all the models. The touch function has its advantage but also some disadvantages. The machine will have to be thicker if it has touch and we want to have slim machines still.

Joanna Stern: Would you go with a tablet convertible form or build touch also into the normal laptop form?

Jerry Shen:We are considering both. We are considering a tablet one and also a different alternative and form but we cannot talk about the details. We plan to talk about it in Q1 of next year

So it is coming.. and depending how you read the interview, it will be multitouch..

Thanks Joanna! Read the whole interview

"Already running pilot runs of the 7-inch multi-touch panels, the company also plans to expand its multi-touch range to 12.1-inch applications for notebooks, the sources remarked."

EETI ( eGalax ) is well know of making UMPC and netbook ( modded netbook )touchscreen controllers. But now they are starting to manufacture capacitive multitouch screens.

I really looking forward on this! We will see how inline this is with touch screen Eee PC news.
