So it seems to be coming more of a common thing now people using USB sticks to install Operating Systems, one thing people seem to have a problem is.. is making the USB Bootable.

Well say no more, it takes about 5 minutes and all you need is command prompt no need for 3rd party software.

~*This only works with Windows Vista/7*~

1) Open Command Prompt

2) cd \ {ENTER}

3) diskpart {ENTER}

4) list disk {ENTER}

5) select disk 1 {ENTER} (if that is your memory stick)

6) clean {ENTER}

7) create partition primary {ENTER}

8) select active partition {ENTER}

9) active {ENTER}

10) format fs-NTFS {ENTER} (may take a few seconds)

11) assign {ENTER}

12) exit {ENTER}

13) Put in your Media (Windows Vista / 7)

14) Go back to Command Prompt

15) D:CD BOOT {ENTER}

D = Optical Drive Letter

16) CD BOOT {ENTER}

17) BOOTSECT.EXE/NT60 G: {ENTER}

G = USB Drive Letter

18) Copy Windows 7 Content to Flash Drive

and there you go, simple put USB stick into your laptop/desktop/netbook and boot from it.

I am just grabbing my notes to create a Gui so you can have mutiple operating systems on 1 disk, and then i'll add that.

Hope it helps

James.
