6.    Rename the downloaded file to sr1sp.exe

7.    Unpack the files

a.   open command prompt

b.   navigate to file location

c.    type sr1sp.exe -x

b.   generating an ISO image not needed

12. Run "pe2usb -f <drive:>" formats and installs the files to your UFD.

  "pe2usb <drive:>" (without -f) to update the BartPE files.

13. Will prompt "For successful booting BartPE from a USB flash disk you need:
"A PC that is capable of booting from a USB flash disk with 256MB memory or more..."
