I have seen many sites/blogs that have “Install Vista from USB guide” but either with incomplete steps or not working guide. I have also seen some guides that don’t’ use proper commands in this guide. After spending many hours I have come up with this 100% working guide to install Windows 7 and Windows 8 from USB flash drive. I just did this method on one of my friends machine and installed Windows 7 and Windows 8 . The main advantage is that by using USB drive you will be able to install Windows 7 or Windows 8 in just 15 minutes. You can also use this bootable USB drive on friend’s computer who doesn’t have a DVD optical drive. The method is very simple and you can use without any hassles. Needless to say that your motherboard should support USB Boot feature to make use of the bootable USB drive. Requirements: *USB Flash Drive (Minimum 4GB) *Windows 7 or Windows 8 installation files. Follow the below steps to create bootable Windows 7/Windows 8 USB drive using which you can install Windows 7 or Windows 8 easily. Procedure: 1. Plug-in your USB flash drive to USB port and move all the contents from USB drive to a safe location on your system. 2. Open Command Prompt with admin rights. Use any of the below methods to open Command Prompt with admin rights. *Type cmd in Start menu search box and hit Ctrl+ Shift+ Enter. Or *Go to Start menu > All programs > Accessories, right click on Command Prompt and select Run as administrator. 3. You need to know about the USB drive a little bit. Type in the following commands in the command prompt: First type DISKPART and hit enter to see the below message. http://www.intowindows.com/how-to-install-windows-7vista-from-usb-drive-detailed-100-... 1/26/2012 Install Windows 7 From USB Page 2 of 114 IntoWindows on Facebook Like 2,024 people like IntoWindows. Pen Ajay Walid Govinda Karim Next type LIST DISK command and note down the Disk number (ex: Disk 1) of your USB flash drive. In the below screenshot my Flash Drive Disk no is Disk 1. 4. Next type all the below commands one by one. Here I assume that your disk drive no is モハメド “Disk 1”.If you have Disk 2 as your USB flash drive then use Disk 2.Refer the above step Ben Mukund Paul Kadomeka Abdul to confirm it. Facebook social plugin So below are the commands you need to type and execute one by one: SELECT DISK 1 CLEAN CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY SELECT PARTITION 1 ACTIVE FORMAT FS=NTFS (Format process may take few seconds) ASSIGN EXIT Don’t close the command prompt as we need to execute one more command at the next step. Just minimize it. 5. Next insert your Windows7/Windows 8 DVD into the optical drive and check the drive letter of the DVD drive. In this guide I will assume that your DVD drive letter is “D” and USB drive letter is “H” (open my computer to know about it). 6. Maximize the minimized Command Prompt in the 4th step.Type the following command now: D: CD BOOT and hit enter.Where “D” is your DVD drive letter. CD BOOT and hit enter to see the below message. 7. Type another command given below to update the USB drive with BOOTMGR compatible code. BOOTSECT.EXE /NT60 H: http://www.intowindows.com/how-to-install-windows-7vista-from-usb-drive-detailed-100-... 1/26/2012 Install Windows 7 From USB Page 3 of 114 Where “H” is your USB drive letter. Once you enter the above command you will see the below message. 8. Copy your Windows 7 or Windows 8 DVD contents to the USB flash drive. 9. Your USB drive is ready to boot and install Windows 7 or Windows 8. Only thing you need to change the boot priority at the BIOS to USB from the HDD or CD ROM drive. I won’t explain it as it’s just the matter the changing the boot priority or enabling the USB boot option in the BIOS. Note: If you are not able to boot after following this guide means you haven’t set the BIOS priority to USB. If you got any problem in following this guide feel free to ask questions by leaving comment. Update: If you find this guide difficult to follow, please use the easy-to-use guide to create a bootable USB to install Windows 7 or Windows 8 using official tool. 23 Tags: Bootable USB, Install Vista/Windows 7 from USB, Install Windows 7, Instlal Vista, USB Related Posts • How To Use UltraISO Software To Create Bootable USB Flash Drive • How To Create Bootable Windows 7, Vista, or XP USB Flash/Pen Drive Quickly • How To Make Bootable USB • Prevent Unauthorized Use of USB Media Using USB Blocker • Top 10 Things To Remember Before Installing Windows 7 Windows 8 Features For Windows 7 • How to get Windows 8 Start screen with live tiles in Windows 7 • How to get Windows 8 betta fish boot screen in Windows 7 • How to get Windows 8 Taskbar user picture tile in Windows 7 • How to get Windows 8 lock screen and sidebar menu in Windows 7 • How to get Windows 8 Start screen like home page web browsers • How to get Windows 8 logon screen date and time in Windows 7 Useful Guides For Windows 7 • 14 Excellent Windows 7 themes • How to make bootable USB • 27 Beautiful Vista logon screens • How to install Windows 7 from USB • Remove Watermark from Windows 7 desktop Ads by Google Key USB Drive XP Boot Disk Windows XP Windows Vista 1299 Comments 1.

I’m a fan, thanks man. 12. ?lhan Posted January 12, 2009 at 11:41 pm | Permalink Hey man your methods does not working in XP. Please reinform us. 13. Omar Posted January 13, 2009 at 4:52 am | Permalink I was doing fine up until step 5. I figured the whole point of booting from a USB drive was to avoid having to burn a disc with the Windows 7 files on it, or install on a PC without a DVD drive. Anyway, I don’t have any blank DVD’s, so I was trying to install it from my USB drive, but I can’t get past step 5, since I don’t have my Windows 7 files on a disc. They are on my hard drive, and my USB drive. Help! 14.

  • Windows Server 2012 Essentials: Domain Vs
    Windows Server 2012 Essentials: Domain vs. Workgroup Sep 26, 2012 Paul Thurrott | Paul Thurrott's Supersite for Windows In a recent article, Windows Server 2012 Essentials: Connect Client PCs Without Using A Domain, I described how it’s actually possible to configure PCs to connect to Windows Server 2012 Essentials without adding them to the domain. This raised a number of questions, however, around what a domain is, and whether such a thing would be useful in a home office or very small business. So, let’s step back for a moment and take a look at these issues. Reader reaction to the article was interesting, and very much according to experience. Many of those who had used Windows Home Server but no other type of Windows Server product have no idea what a domain is. Those who did have traditional Windows Server experience, however, wondered why I was so down on domains: After all, Essentials 2012 offers the simplest domain setup imaginable. Both reactions are completely understandable. As it turns out, using a domain in a home office or very small business comes with both advantages and disadvantages. Originally, I planned to tackle a number of these issues in a single article, but it got a bit convoluted and lengthy, so I’ve split it into multiple parts. First up, a very basic overview of domains and how they compare to workgroups, aimed at Windows Home Server users What is a domain? I assume that virtually everyone reading this article has a home network of some kind, with wired and/or wireless connectivity to two or more PCs.
