USB drive not recognized in diskpart

mavric -  
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,

      I booted with several USB drives and the same thing
      Diskpart does not see any USB drive.

        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.
