Hello,

I would like to create a bootable USB drive to install Windows 7.
Following the procedure from the 01NET site (see the following link: http://www.01net.com/contenu/2562/ta_fiches/comment-installer-windows-7-rc-depuis-une-cle-usb-659-1)

When I run a LIST DISK, it doesn't see my USB drive. I started my computer with the USB drive plugged in, but I have the same problem.

Can someone please help me?

Thank you

Configuration: Windows XP / Firefox 7.0.1

    Hello,

    not all USB drives are compatible for booting from them, it seems.

    In the disk manager, is the USB key visible?

    If so... do the same manipulations in the graphical interface

    create a primary partition
    set it as active
    format it to fat32 in quick mode
    assign it a drive letter.

    then follow the rest of the procedure.
