BOOT ALL OPERATING SYSTEMS FROM PENDRIVE

Hi friends, making a bootable USB flash drive for Windows Vista and Windows 7 isn't all that tricky, but it's always nice to find an app that simplifies things. Not only does WinToFlash make the process about as easy as it can get, but it can also create Windows XP, Server 2003, and Server 2008 installers.WinToFlash is a free download and is totally portable. It's an excellent tool to add to your USB-related utilities.

It's very convenient as it tarts a wizard that will help pull over the contents of a windows installation CD or DVD and prep the USB drive to become a bootable replacement for the optical drive. It can also do this with your LiveCD.

You don't have to worry about scratches on the disc or misplacing your original media discs once you transfer their contents to the flash drive. The optical drive is quickly becoming a thing of the past, especially in office environments, as media is shifted to the cloud.

To do this you will need:
_ A USB pen drive that is at least 4GB
- A Windows installation CD, DVD or .iso disc image file
- An application called WinToFlash
- Winrar or similar if you plan to use a disc image file

NOTE: To fully understand how to do it, please watch the video tutorial atteched in this archive.

 
ENJOY!!!
