Recently i decided to install windows 7 on my Acer Aspire One netbook. Because there is no internal dvd drive, i had to make a bootable usb flash drive for windows 7 installation files. While searching on the Google i found this helpful tutorial on how to make a bootable USB flash drive. But there were few little problems. First of all the formating program doest work on Windows 7, you have to use the native software. Just go to My computer, press right button on the USB flash drive icon, and then format. Chose fat32 and you are pretty much done for that. Next problem was the BootSect.exe . Apparently for it to run, and make some changes in your USB flash, it has to run as Administrator. So you need to open the start menu, in the search box write cmd, when the cmd.exe will appear. Press right mouse button on it, and run it as Administrator. Then you need to use different CD command than suggested in the link i pasted before. You have to write “cd c:\Users\(your user)\Desktop\bootsect” and then run BootSect.exe . Everything else is on the link pasted before. Good luck!
