IMPORTANT:
You will need a flash drive with a size of 2 GB or larger. Make sure that you do not leave anything important on the flash drive, because all data on it will be deleted during the following steps.

• Download OTLPEStd.exe from one of the following links and save it to your Desktop: mirror1 Currently this file is a little less than 100Mb in size so it can take awhile to download.
• Download eeepcfr.zip from the following link and save it to your Desktop: the mirror
• Finally, if you do not have a file archiver like 7-zip or Winrar installed, please download 7-zip from the following link and install it: 7Zip
• Once you have 7-zip install, decompress OTLPEStd.exe by rightclicking on the folder and choosing the options shown in the picture below. Please use the suggested folder name as in the example ( OTLPEStd) which will be created on your Desktkop.

• Open the folder OTLPEStd which was created on your Desktop ( or in the same location as OTLPEStd.exe if you did not put it on your Desktop ) and right-click OTLPE_New_Std.iso.

• And extract the content onto your Desktop in a folder name OTLPE similar to what is illustrated below:

• Now in a similar fashion, please use 7-Zip to also decompress eeepcfr.zip but this time decompress it to your systemroot (usually C:\). This will thus create a C:\eeepcfr folder in the root of your Windows boot drive.

• Go to C:\eeecpfr and double-click usb_prep8.cmd to launch it.
• Press any key when asked to in the black window that opens.
