eeepc vista installation.
Hi i recently purchesed an EEEPC the 4gb model. I have heard people say that it can support windows vista. I already have a disk and key code. I was wondering how I would install it on the eee laptop. I tried using an external harddrive then reconnect it to the eee hoping I could get it to boot from the hard drive. But vista won't allow me to install through a USB connection. I also thought about buying an external disk drive. These don't need installing for obvious reasons most of the time anyway. Does anyone have any ideas or helpful tips. Thanks.
SORRY FOR POSTING IT TWICE DIDN'T MEAN TOO |

A friend has an EEE, and personally..... I wouldn't install Vista on it. I think it will use too many resources, which the EEE, as an ultra-portable laptop simply lacks. XP would be a better option, in my oppinion, and this can be installed with the use of an external Optical Drive.
