So if you've slipstreamed some additional drivers, for instance, then it'll complain about the changes and refuse to go further.Īnd of course there's no guarantee that your computer will boot from the USB flash drive right away: that's all very dependent on your BIOS settings.
What the program won't do, unfortunately, is work with modified ISO files. It's all very simple, just a four step wizard (and if you'd prefer to create a DVD then it can do that, too). When that's finished, though, the Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool will create a bootable USB Flash drive, based on your Windows 7 image, that can be used to install the new operating system. Normally you would then use your disc mastering software to burn it to DVD, but what if you want to install it on a netbook, or some other system that doesn't have a DVD drive? Then you'll probably need a copy of Microsoft's Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool.ĭespite the name, this straightforward utility has nothing to do with downloading Windows 7: you'll still do that from within your browser. If you buy a copy of Windows 7 online, from Microsoft, then at the end of the process they'll allow you to download an ISO disc image.
