Step 1: Using DISKPART command

1. Insert your USB flash drive to your running computer. As the first step, we
need to run Command Prompt as administrator. To do this, we need to find
cmd by typing 'cmd' in the search box on Windows Start Menu. After
search result for 'cmd' appears, right click on it and select "Run as
administrator".

2. Type 'diskpart' on Command Prompt (without quotes) and hit Enter. Wait
for a while until the DISKPART program run.
3. Type 'list disk' to view active disks on your computer and hit Enter. There
would be seen that the active disks shown as Disk 0 for hard drive
and Disk 1 for your USB flashdrive with its total capacity.

4. Type 'select disk 1' to determine that disk 1 would be processed in the
next step then hit Enter.

5. Type 'clean' and hit Enter to remove all of data in the drive.

6. Type 'create partition primary' and hit Enter. Creating a primary partition
and further recognized by Windows as 'partition 1'.

7. Type 'select partition 1' an hit Enter. Choosing the 'partition 1' for setting
up it as an active partition.

8. Type 'active' and hit Enter. Activating current partition.

9. Type 'format fs=ntfs quick' and hit Enter. Formatting current partition as
NTFS file system quickly.

10. Type 'exit' and hit Enter. Leaving DISKPART program but don't close the
Command Prompt instead. We would still need it for next process.

Step 2: Creating Boot Sector


Let us assume that the flash / USB drive is the D: drive and the DVD installer
located on drive F :. The first step, we will navigate Command Prompt to set
installation DVD as its active directory.

1. By default, Command Prompt's active directory for Administrator


permission is on C:\Windows\System32>. We will navigate Command
Prompt to set on DVD (F:) as its active directory. Just type 'f:' then hit Enter,
and the active directory changed to F:.

2. Type 'cd boot' and hit Enter. Active directory changed to F:\boot>.
3. Type 'bootsect /nt60 d:' and hit Enter. Creating boot sector on D: drive
(USB flash drive).

4. Type 'exit' and hit Enter to close the Command Prompt. Until this step we
have made a bootable USB drive sucessfully, and the flash drive is ready to
be used as a boot media.

Step 3: Copying Installation Files


To install Windows from a bootable USB drive, we just need to copy the whole
installation files contained on the DVD installer to flash drive. To do this, open the
Command Prompt as in previous steps. Once it opens, type 'xcopy f: \ *. * d: \ /
E / H / F' and then press Enter. Wait until all the files in the DVD installer copied
to the flash drive. Now bootable USB drive is ready to be used for installing
Windows from flash drive and you're done !
