    i downloaded the original MSDN iso files of windows 7 ultimate x86 and x64,
    if i delete with "ultraISO" the ei.cfg to bring the all other versions of windows i will not corrupt the iso?

    All editions will be available and you wont corrupt anything. I did the same with both iso's i use from msdn.

    I noticed issues while trying to install windows via usb when the ei.cfg was deleted.. it wouldn't let me boot the setup and had to put it back on and just edit the version manually

    I removed ei.cf and booted from USB to install home premium.

    Just in case you don't know when you load an ISO into Ultraiso you can delete and add files then burn dvd on the fly you don't need to save the modded iso .:)
