Install windows7/Vista from USB/Flash drive

How To: Install Windows 7/Vista From your USB/Flash Drive

     The main advantage is that by using USB drive you will be able to install Windows 7/Vista in just 15 minutes. You can also use this bootable USB drive on friend’s computer who doesn’t have a DVD optical drive. The method is very simple and you can use without any hassles. Needless to say that your motherboard should support USB

Boot feature to make use of the bootable USB drive.

Minimum h/w and s/w Requirements:

1)USB Flash Drive (Minimum 4GB)

2)Windows 7 or Vista installation files. (Or *.iso file)

Steps to make bootable USB drive:

1) Plug-in your USB flash drive to USB port and move all the contents from USB drive to a safe location on your system.

2) Open Command Prompt with admin rights. Use any of the below methods to open Command Prompt with admin rights.

•       Type cmd in Start menu search box and hit Ctrl+ Shift+ Enter.

•       Go to Start menu > All programs > Accessories, right click on Command Prompt and select  Run as administrator.

•       You need to know about the USB drive a little bit.

Type in the following commands in the command prompt:

 1)   First type DISKPART and hit enter to see the below message.

 2)   Next type LIST DISK command and note down the Disk number (ex: Disk 1) of your USB flash drive.

 3)  Next type all the below commands one by one. Here I assume that your disk drive no is “Disk 1”.If you have Disk 2 as

your USB flash drive then use Disk 2.Refer the above step to confirm it.

So highlighted below are the commands you need to type and execute one by one:

SELECT DISK 1

CLEAN

CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY

SELECT PARTITION 1

ACTIVE

FORMAT FS=NTFS

(Format process may take few seconds)

ASSIGN

EXIT

Don’t close the command prompt as we need to execute one more command at the next step. Just minimize it.

4) Next insert your Windows7/Vista DVD into the optical drive and check the drive letter of the DVD drive. In this guide I will

assume that your DVD drive letter is “D” and USB drive letter is “H” (open my computer to know about it).

5) Maximize the minimized Command Prompt in the 3rd step. Type the following command now:

D:CD BOOT and hit enter. Where “D” is your DVD drive letter.

CD BOOT and hit enter to see the below message.

6) Type another command given below to update the USB drive with BOOTMGR compatible code.

BOOTSECT.EXE/NT60 H:

Where “H” is your USB drive letter. Once you enter the above command you will see the below message.

7) Copy your Windows 7/Vista DVD contents to the USB flash drive.

8) Your USB drive is ready to boot and install Windows 7/Vista. Only thing you need to change the boot priority at the BIOS

to USB from the HDD or CD ROM drive(i.e First Boot device option)

Note: If you are not able to boot after following this guide means you haven’t set the BIOS priority to USB. 

Output of a command to file

An incredibly useful Command Prompt trick is the use of redirection operators, specifically the > and >> operators.

These little characters let you redirect the output of a command to a file, giving you a saved version of whatever data the command produced in the Command Prompt window.

Let's say you're about to post a computer problem to an online forum, like my computer support forum for example, and you want to provide really accurate information about your computer. An easy way to do that would be to use the systeminfo command with a redirection operator.

For example, you might execute systeminfo > c:\mycomputerinfo.txt to save the information provided by the systeminfo command to a file. You could then attach the file to your forum post.

How to install Turbo C++ in Windows 7/vista 64 Bit ?


1)First Download Turbo C/C++

3) Extract your TURBOC.EXE file by using Winrar. Right-click on the "TURBOC"

file and you can find the option "Extract to TURBOC\".

After extracting, you will notice a folder named "TURBOC" will be created.

Inside that folder "TURBOC" there will be an another folder named "TC"

which contains all the C++ files in it. Copy that folder "TC" into the created

folder "Turboc++".

So in your D-drive Turboc++ folder will contain the folder "TC"

4) Double-click on the shortcut icon "DOSBox" that can be found on your

desktop. A command prompt will be opened with the prompt Z:\>

Now enter the below command and press "Enter"

mount d d:\turboc++\

"Drive D is mounted as local directory d:\turboc++\" should appear.

Now change the prompt by entering the below command.

d: ---> Press Enter.

Now your prompt changes to D:\>

Now enter the below commands

cd tc\bin --> Press Enter. Now the prompt will be D:\TC\Bin>

tc ----> Press Enter.

Turboc++ Editor will be opened. Click on OK.

5) Go to "Options" --> Directories --> Change the path to D. That is

Include Directories path should be D:\TC\Include

Library Directories path should be D:\TC\LIB

Click on OK.

Now again go to "Options" --> Directories --> Save.

6) Hold the "Alt" key and Press Enter to "Maximize" it. To minimize it, again

hold the "Alt" key and Press Enter.

[Note : Don't use the shortcut key Ctrl+F9 to Run the program. You need to do

it manually by going to "Run" --> Run.]
