Install Vista and Windows 7 using bootable USB storage
device



Windows Vista and Windows 7 can be installed via a bootable USB drive as
well. And the installation would be much easier and faster than installation
via DVD. Windows Server 2008 & Windows Server 2008 R2 also can be
installed via USB drive except installation of Windows 7 & Windows Vista. Initially Windows Vista/7 DVD or installation source (setup backup files
stored on local hard disk) & a 4GB USB 2.0 Storage device would be
required. You can follow the steps to install Windows Vista/7 from USB
Drive.
 
1. Plug your USB storage device and run CMD and execute the following
commands one after another.
Diskpart

List disk

Exit

2. After executing the above commands simply copy all Windows Vista/7
files from DVD/Backup storage to USB storage device.


3. Change boot settings from BIOS and set it to boot with your USB drive,
you can install Windows Vista/7 via bootable USB storage device. That is it.
