TuFaS Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 or you could use UltraISO and follow these steps:How to install Windows 7 from USB drive (step by step guide):Step #1: Creating bootable USB drive 1. Sart UltraISO (V9.3 or newer version, download here) 2. Choose ‘File’->’Open’ from main menu and open ISO file of Windows 7, for example “d:\ISO\WIN7_DVD.iso”; You may also open the original DVD by 'File'->'Open CD/DVD' from main menu if you have not an bootable ISO 3. Choose ‘Bootable’->’Write disk image’ from main menu 4.Insert the USB drive you intend to boot from 5. Choose proper “Write Method”,USB-HDD+ is recommanded 6. Hit “Write” to get a bootable USB driveQUOTEIf no errors occured in the above process, you should now be all set to boot from USB and install Windows 7!

oliverjia Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Acronis uses a very peculiar boot loader that programs like UltraISO/PowerISO won't see the boot loader, nor can they copy the boot loader to a USB stick. If you open the Acronis ISO use powerISO, you only see one folder: recovery manager, but the size is only about half of the ISO size - poweriso can not see the bootloader.So the only way you can do it is to actually install acronis TI program and activate it using a serial number/crack, then make a bootable USB from within the program. There is no way to make the acronis boot cd directly to a boot USB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ponting Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 (edited) For multiboot USB drives,take a look here.You can simply drop just about any ISO file on to USB and get it to boot.https://sites.google.com/a/rmprepusb.com/www/tutorials/72---easyboot---a-grubdos-multiboot-drive-that-is-easy-to-maintain/e2bv1http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MA1U_3Z91AI Edited September 2, 2013 by NSFfan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
