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.

5. Step 3: Copying Installation Files

6. 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 !
