    I have a few questions, I hate hate hate win 8, and have been trying to find win 7 or win vista or ANYTHING besides win 8. None of them seem to want to work for me, (so far) and now that my lovely Tonks (laptop) has auto-updated to 8.1 I may scream...and cry...and all around freak out if I can't downgrade soon. Please, I am sure me posting this is probably annoying, I'm SURE someone else has asked, but I'm a mom of 3, and while Dad is at work and not glued to the Xbox is the only time I can do anything. It's already pushing 3am and I am desperate...someone, please...PM me with the direct download or a virtual headdesk cause I'm losing my mind!
    Gratefully! -Finche-

    You need a video card with 128 MB of video RAM (or at least 64 MB of video RAM and 1 GB of system RAM for on-board graphics) supporting pixel shader 2.0, and with WDDM-compatible drivers.

    About Windows creating a 100MB partition, at beginning of drive, for storage of things like the bootloader and BitLocker (on some versions of Window$); Im really lazy when I partition a new HDD, in order to have just 1 (one) primary partition and no *hidden* system reserved partition. I just grab an install disk for Win XP, and start to install. When it gets to the point of dumping the XP files to the hard drive, I simply hit the restart button. Then when the PC restarts, I hit the eject button and slip in the Windows 7 install DVD and install it, ...no reserved partition will be added.

    Thanks jlgager for the detailed steps. One quick question: After I make a bootable USB, in the future, if I want to again get the ISO from the USB, how can I do that? I do not want to once again download the ISO but want the ISO from the bootable USB. Please help! Thanks!

    After making the usb pen bootable, you normally copy over the ISO content to the pen drive, the ISO won't destruct then, simply save to a secure place :D.

    I have a question which I think only a forum can answer. I have just built my first pc and I want to install windows 7 pro 64 through a usb install. The main problem is that I am coming off of a mac and only have access to a mac to prepare the usb for installation of the os, and the w7 usb/dvd boot tool does not work with a mac. I plan on using the newest version of the daz loader for this. But now see how much more complicated this will be. I'm wondering if it would be possible to create a usb boot of linux and then install windows 7 through that route. I am willing to put in the time to make this work as this is a project for me.

    The readme does not contain instructions on how to embed the loader onto the ISO file. So, how does one get the Daz loader onto the Win7 x64 ISO?

    Thanks
