Windows 7 deploying from USB question.

MUMBAI: Employment constructs are becoming more flexible. Companies are opening up to evolving employment constructs with employees no longer bound by the rigidities of working in one organization. Job security, as was known a decade ago, say industry experts, doesn't capture people's imagination any more. Companies believe a scenario where employees are working for multiple organizations is fast approaching. "I see employment constructs evolving and offering flexibility as appropriate  .....Read More

  • Windows 7 from usb to G505

    Hi... I recently got Lenovo G505, 2gb ram, 1 Ghz with windows 8 64 bit, love Win7 so i decided to install windows 7 from USB... It wasn't booting from bootable usb windows 7 at first but when i changed bios settings and turned UEFI to Legacy Mode... Windows installation process did start from the usb but now it says this,"windows cannot be installed on this disk. The selected disk is of the GPT partition style".. My head is spinnig as i even formatted windows 8 partition during installation so i can not use my laptop untill i install Win7 from my bootable usb.... Thanks

    Hi,
    You should be able to use DISKPART during installation to wipe the drive (which will let the installer initialize it as MBR) or covert to MBR.
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-windows_install/windows-cannot-be-install...
    Another option would be to install Win 7 in UEFI/GPT mode.  That would require rebuilding your USB drive to use FAT32 instead of NTFS - and it woud need to be SP1 media.

  • MDT Media deployent via USB Question (issue)

    Ok I have performed Media deployment via USB thumbdrive many times over the years, so I must be overlooking something this time. Here is the what is happening:
    Performing a refresh via USB executing Litetouch.vbs from the deploy\scripts folder on the USB thumbdrive. Scanstate runs and saves the data using hardlinking.
    (works perfect)
    Then the client reboots into WINPE and then when the deployment should pick backup I see the message
    "Please reinsert the
    media (CD, DVD, or USB) needed to complete the
    deployment." While the USB drive is still plugged in I hit ok on the missing media message screen and it does nothing.
    If I hit F8 and check to see if the USB drive is present I find out it is not.
    But If I simply reboot the client it succesfuly picks back up and completes the deployment. My Brootstrap.ini contains the following as required for USB media deployment:
    [Settings]
    Priority=Default
    [Default]
    SkipBDDWelcome=YES
    So the question is why do I get the "Please reinsert the
    media (CD, DVD, or USB) needed to complete the
    deployment

    I bought a new SP3 and wanted to upgrade the OS to Windows 10
    The install was almost finished, the device restarted and a pop up box appeared saying:
    "Media not found: Please reinsert the media (CD, DVD or USB) needed to complete the deployment"
    Nothing I do can get around this:
    Tried disabling secure boot from BIOS
    Tried deleting boot files from BIOS
    Tried PXE booting from an image - including safe/recovery mode (this boots into the setup environment but results in the pop up box) using a Surface network dongle
    Tried USB booting (both a Windows and WinPE image) - the USB drive is ignored entirely and will not boot
    Searching the web it appears that there's a rogue directory that can cause this. Deleting it fixes the issue but I cannot get to a command prompt because the pop up window stops the OS from loading.
    Any other ideas - please?!

  • Install windows 8 from USB on X1 Carbon

    I am trying to install windows 8 from the 3 disks that came with the X1 Carbon. There is no DVD drive and we have no external disk drive, so I need to create a bootable USB for this. The laptop came with windows 7 on it.
    It is easy to use DISKPART to ready the USB as a bootable device, but how to I take the data from the 3 DVDs and put it onto the USB so that it works? The first one only has drivers but the OS install is split onto two disks. I referred to a KB article but it was talking about autorun files that are not present on these DVDs.
    The DVDs I have are labeled as (1) Applications and Drivers Recovery Disk, (2) OS Recovery Disk Windows 8 Pro [Disk 1 of 2], and (2) OS Recovery Disk Windows 8 Pro [Disk 2 of 2].
    Solved!

    Hi,
    Sorry I don't have a solution for you.  I've tried to do what you're attempting without success.  Tried every trick I could think of. The best I could do was getting "disk" 1 to boot but it could never find the rest of the image from the other disks whether they were on separate USB drives or all on one.  It can easily be done with Microsoft install media, but not recovery media.
    My efforts were with Win 7 Lenovo media.  It's possible that things have changed w/Win 8.
    My only suggestion is to use an external DVD drive.

  • Installing Windows XP from USB - no system installed already

    Hi all,
    I am a newbie here, so please bear with me. I recently purchased a Lenovo x121e ThinkPad. It did NOT come with an operating system on it. I thought it would be a pretty simple job to install Windows XP from a USB Flash Drive. Apparently not!
    Would anyone be able to give me instructions on how to prepare the bootable USB drive and then the steps that should be taken after that.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    The Google suggest this: Tutorial: Installing XP Home/Professional from a Flash Drive
    I haven't tried it.  It's (relatively) easy to do with Win 7, not so much with XP.

  • Installing windows 7 from USB to vaio VPCf13

    hi all,
    the HD of my vaio broke, so I replaced with a SSD and I was trying to install windows 7 from a USB.
    after the first step of the installation, I got this message:
    A required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing
    I tried several tricks suggested in the forums:
    -check the USB image of windows, works ok in another computer
    -change USB port (tried the 2 available), nothing
    -change BIOS features to enable UEFI, the computer is too old for that and doesn't have this option
    -install the intel  SATA/RAID drivers after the error (as indicated here http://pcingredient.blogspot.com/2014/01/repair-error-windows-7-required-cddvd.html), error "The intel 5 series port 6 sata AHCI----, device driver could not be istalled.
    contact your vendor for updated driver
    -install USB 3.0 driver, after the missing message I get no new devices could be found...."
    please help me!!!

    Hi,
    Have you tested in other computer with this bootable usb drive?
    Return back to installation UI, and press Shift+F10 simultaneously, then it will open cmd window.
    Run those commands below:
    Diskpart
    List disk
    Check if it shows your USB drive. If you cannot usb drive, it indicates your usb drive is not detected by Windows PE. So, please just plug out and then re-plug in your usb drive to view if usb drive shows.
    and then reinstall Windows 7.

  • Installing Windows 7 from USB flash (Macbook Air mid 2012)

    Hello,
    I read some famous instructions, but they are not for Macbook air mid 2012 as there are some missing options in their Bootcamp Assistant and this on macbook air 2012.
    Btw, they suggested some rEFIt program which supports installing windows from usb which is made in 2010 but it has not been updated since then. I tried it but it doesn't work like it is described in instructions.
    I have my USB and Windows 7 on it, but i don't know how to install it on the Macbook Air 2012.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Kind Regards,

    Hello,
    Thank you for the explanation that helped me to understand Windows 7 installation process!
    Unfortunately i need more additional information as Boot Camp Installation & Setup Guide is very poor with information that i need.
    To explain you better what i mean on, i will quote Boot Camp Guide parts with underlined sentences that have been confusing me. Some sentences that have been confusing me more than other ones will be additionally bolded. I will explain you why i don't understand it after every part.
    1. "Introduction"
    "You can install Windows with an installation disc you provide or, on some Mac computers, with a USB flash drive that contains a Windows ISO images downloaded from Microsoft. Boot Camp Assistant helps you burn the image to the flash drive."
    -But i already have my iso image on the USB flash drive. There is no need to be burned again?
    2."What you need"
    "Boot Camp Assistant erases the flash drive, and copies to it the Windows 7 ISO image and software drivers that let Windows work with your Mac hardware."
    -Erasing the flash drive? Does it mean that it will delete my WIndows 7 which is already on my flash drive?
    -Copying Windows 7 ISO image and software drivers to my flash drive? Why? I already have Windows on my flash drive! Software drivers? How do i get them and where shall i place them?
    3."Prepare your mac for Windows"
    "If you want to install Windows from a USB flash drive and you have a Windows 7 ISO image, select option to copy the image to a USB flash drive."
    Why shall i select the option to copy Windows 7 ISO image?
    1.I already have it on my flash drive.
    2. I don't have it on my Macbook so there is no place in a ssd where Boot Camp will find Windows 7 ISO image.
    Here is the overview:
    Guide is telling me to select the option to copy image to a USB drive which will first erase my USB flash drive and then copy Windows 7 and it's software drivers to my USB flash.
    -But only thing that i need is Windows support software and i don't know whether to download it to desktop, or to USB flash drive.
    Kind Regards,

  • W1-810 Acer Iconia 8W (W1-810) - Boot Windows Installation from USB

    Hi everyone!
    Yesterday I have succesfully updgraded my w1-810 from "Windows 8.1 with Bing" to "Windows 10 Home"... but looking in the System Info, I've seen that even though I have a 64-bit machine, my Windows is x32 (I noticed that the same was for Windows 8.1 before, but I hoped that during the upgrade the installation would've asked me if I wanted to install the x32 or x64 version of Windows 10... somehow). I've downloaded the Windows 10 Home x64 ISO via the Media Creation Tool offered by Microsoft and installed it on a USB Drive firstly using Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool (it worked with Windows 8/8.1, but this time it gave me an error like "I copied the ISO but couldn't make it bootable"), and then with Rufus (FAT32 and "MBR Partition for UEFI")... but after restarting the Tablet, it went straight to Windows, ignoring the USB. Reading around I discovered something about the BIOS, so I entered in it, selected "Erase all Secure Boot Setting", disabled Secure Boot, and lastlysetting the boot order so that it would begin with USB devices. Still nothing. Starting while pressing F2 (the Boot Menu) I see only "Windows Boot Manager", that brings me to the ususal Windows 10 login screen. Using the Advanced Startup from the OS and selecting "EFI USB", after the tablet restarts I get this error: "system doesn't have any usb boot option. please select other boot option in boot manager menu", and it kicks me back to the F2 Boot Menu, that looks just like before. Last thing I've done is today: with the Media Creation Tool I've re-downloaded Windows 10 Home x64 again, but this time I selected not to download an ISO, but to install it directly in the USB Drive... but nothing has changed. I've also updated the BIOS to 1.06: same as before. So... any suggestions? Unfortunately I can't find much informations regarding this issue for THIS model... I've found only this discussion, and read something about "rEFIt" for EFI boot menu and stuff... but since I know nothing about it, I don't want to, I don't know, force an installation I can't do and mess things up. Somewhere else I've read that I should switch from UEFI to Legacy mode... but from the BIOS of this model, I can't do it... Thanks for your help! 

    Por lo que sé necesitas un mínimo de 2Gb  de ram para usar W10 x64, aunque los procesadores de tú máquina trabajen a 64 bits. La Iconia W1 810 trae 1 Gb en placa. Saludos

  • My iMac can't boot Windows 7 From USB while my Macbook Pro can do it

    I install Windows 7 64 bit and rEFIt into a USB hard disk and hope to boot from my iMac 27" (2010 Mid). However, it shows that no boot deivce is found.
    If I plug the SAME disk to my Macbook Pro 17" (2009 Mid), it can boot Windows 7 without any problem.
    I tried with Linux and get same result, iMac says no boot device while my Macbook Pro can boot it without problem.
    I tried experiment for weeks and still can't get iMac work.
    I think it is very abnormal and I wonder if someone can tell me how to fix it or any directory to solve this problem.

    My iMac runs snow leopard and my MacBook pro runs Lion. Both of them are updated with latest updated. I just get one external USB hard disk with Windows 7 32 bit installed and magically, my iMac can boot it from rEFIt. However, I don't know what makes it works. I tried to make same configuration, software and steps on other USB hard disks for hundreds times but I can repeat it again. All other attempt can make USB hard disk boot on MacBook Pro but not iMac only.

  • Macbook Pro Retina unable to boot windows 7 from USB

    I have an unusual problem
    i cannot install windows 7 on my macbook pro retina. Thats not the weird part. This is what happens.
    - I use bootcamp.
    - I make bootable USB.
    - Download drivers.
    - Install windows 7
    - Select partition size as 50 or 60 or 70 GB
    - mac restarts, then a black screen appears, a cursor on top left appears just for a second and then dissappears and i am left with a black screen with nothing on it. (No text or cursors)
    I have tried installing 32 bit, 64 bit windows 7.
    Weird thing is i had encountered this problem before and did a bit of searching n found out that you cannot upgrade to 64bit from 32bit. But thats not the issue here. A fix given to that problem worked for me as well. Make a bootable usb with 32bit windows and manually remove all non-hidden files on it and replace with non-hidden files of a 64bit win7. It worked for me then. Win7 installed. But recently i got battlefield 3 and needed additional space to install so i had to remove win7 and repartition. Now no solution is working. Not even the replacing 32bit files with 64bit files.
    I really wanna game!! Please help!!

    SOLVED:
    64bit still acts cocky.
    But i tried that work around with another USB and it worked. Just Like that
    Cocky Mac.
    Create USB with 32bit OS, replace non-hidden files with non-hidden files of 64bit OS of windows 7.

  • Can't install Windows 7 from usb Lenovo g585

    Ever since I got this laptop I've been running into many issues, some of which include hard time updating, windows 8 store not being able to open, just crashes, and sometimes when I press shutdown it restarts instead..just to list a few. So I burned a windows 7 iso image onto a flash drive, but when I select my flash drive from the menu that comes up when I hit f12, It says something along the lines of "missing operating system" "exiting pxe rom" and kicks me back to the windows boot manager, which has 2 options, windows recovery, and windows 8, which is my default os. I've got a legitamate copy of windows 7 64bit iso, and my comp is 64bit. I used windows 7 usb tool to burn the .iso image. My flash drive works on my asus and my desky just fine, I can boot and install windows 7...but not on my lenovo... Any suggestions? I've also ran chkdsk and other stuff too but no avail, thanks in advance!

    HOLD ON GUYS THE PROBLEME IS MINOR AND THE SOLUTION SIMPLE, THE G585 WIN8 IS NOT THAT BAD AFTER U READ THIS OR GO DIRECTLY TO THE LENOVO SUPPORT LINK BELOW AND APPLY THE FIX..
    I had the same problem with my new G585, I couldn't get any windows 8 upgrades done by undoing and reversing to pre-upgrade state right after reboot which made my system unstable and very slow to use and windows8 very buggy, it was very frustrating but I didn't give up and kept trying to upgrade with no success to the point I started to think that either something was wrong with my unit even though I had it for less than 2 weeks since I bought it from best buy or Lenovo effed up this time with this sluggish configuration and that I have to add RAM and see if its any better b4 returning it to them for servicing.. well IT TURNS OUT YES LENO EFFED UP BUT NOT WITH THE CONFIGURATION BUT WITH SOME BLOATWEAR CALLED NITRO PDF THAT WILL NOT LET U UPGRADE WINDOWS8 AND SPESIFECLY THE UPGRADE PART OF NITRO PDF FROM TRIAL VERSION TO FULL VERSION CALLED NITRO PDF PRO 7 OR SOME SH** LIKE THAT, THE GOOD PART IS NITRO IS OFFERING A DOWNLOAD FIX U CAN DO WHEN YOU USE THE BLOATHWEAR FOR THE FIRST TIME OR BETTER YET BY DELETING THAT APP AFTER THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO UPGRADE YOUR WINDOWS8 OS AND YOU WILL BE AMAZED BY HOW MANY UPGRADES YOU WILL GO THRU BUT YOUR SYSTEME WILL START RUNNING FASTER AND SMOOTHER FROM THE FEW FIRST UPGRADE.

  • How to install Windows 7 from a USB drive!

    This is even easier than installing Windows XP from a USB drive, and will also reduce the time taken to install Windows 7, it took me about 15 minutes!
    The advice in the guide is also applicable to installing Vista.
    You need basically:
    a USB flash drive at least 4GB in size
    a Windows 7 DVD
    To sum up:
    Format your USB drive, with the NTFS filesystem
    Open Command Prompt as an administrator, and run the Bootsect.exe program off the Windows 7 CD to make the USB drive bootable
    Copy the contents of the Windows 7 DVD to the USB drive
    Restart your PC, press F11 (or whichever key it is) to access the Boot menu, and select your USB drive to boot from

    I have done this and it is simple.
    I cleaned and (re)formated an 8GB flash drive under Windows7 using diskpart.  I chose quick format and a fat filesystem.  It doesn't need to be ntfs.  I had diskpart mark the partition active.  I copied the DVD contents to the flash drive.  I also made a folder on it for motherboard drivers.
    After that, I booted the drive on a new machine.  Windows7 setup came up, and didn't find any hard drives, other than the USB flash drive.  I clicked the button to load drivers, and pointed it to the folder I had copied them to on the flash.  Windows installed without problems.
    Hi bnborg..Do u mind sharing with me your motherboard driver folder? I have the MSI U135DX Netbook and each time I hit the button to install Windows 7 it asks me for some mobo driver...Think i might need it to get tru with a successful install..
