You don’t need the Bootsect argument at all if you’re using Vista/7/8 to put Vista/7/8 install files onto USB, that’s why it’s noted in the article the listed method is for those operating systems only.When Windows formats a USB drive it will install the correct bootsector for that Windows version already; Vista/7/8 will install nt60, XP will install nt52. The Bootsect.exe command only becomes useful if you’re on XP and trying to create a Vista/7/8 bootable USB or vice versa. But then you run into problems of needing extra discs and not being able to create a 64-bit USB from a 32-bit Windows etcIn short, the “bootsect /nt60 drive” command is pointless when XP isn’t involved. Excellent info – saved me as most of my systems refuse to boot from the Win7 DVD though they can boot the Vista DVD.

Need to boot from the installation DVD since I’d like to wipe the HDs (non-upgrade install) as part of the install. Your manual way with Win7’s DiskPart I’d not seen previously – nice and easily done (fast too). I was working with the older HP USB Formater utility – to make a boot USB but its formating was taking 2x as long. Found your post during its formating, started a second USB drive with your method – its done and the files are copied – HP Formater is still chugging along Thanks Again!

I am in charge of upgrading a small computer lab from Windows XP to Windows 7 and I'm having a hell of a time with it. One quirk of these computers is that they don't have a DVD drive, so I've made an install flash drive from an ISO we downloaded from Microsoft Volume Licensing. After jumping through a lot of hoops to create a bootable flash drive on XP, I think I have one that should work.I know it should work, because I can plug it into my friend's HP netbook and get to the Windows 7 installation screen, but when I try with the lab computers, I get the following error:Windows Boot ManagerWindows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:1. Insert your Windows Installation disc and restart your computer.2.

Choose your language settings and then click 'Next'3. Click 'Repair your computer'If you do not have this disc, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance.File: BootBCDStatus: 0xc000000Info: An error occurred while attempting to read the boot configuration data.Now, I know that these computers support booting from a USB, because in the BIOS there's an option that says, 'USB Booting ENABLED,' and the USB drive show up fine in the boot order settings dialog.

I was also able to boot to a GRUB setup on my flash drive, but I wasn't able to get the Windows 7 installation to start with that either, mostly because I have no idea how it works. I tried to use EasyBCD, but it didn't recognize my flash drive as a boot disk.I'm not sure if its relevant, but the computers are Gateway 310S's and use the Thrasher motherboard. I've already checked to see if there's a BIOS update, and we have the most recent one.Does anyone have any ideas to help me? I've put about 10 hours into this problem already and it's really starting to wear on me.edit: 2000 posts!

Originally posted by Dr Nno:I followed, and they worked flawlessly on several flash disks, and on several flavors of Windows 7 (32, 64, home premium, enterprise).Did you use bootsect to copy the correct boot sector to your flash disk? I used the same set of instructions to install Windows 7 on a couple of machines.Solishu, may be an issue with the flash drive itself? Those instructions seems to require a computer with Vista, but these computers are all XP.I'm pretty sure it can't be the USB drive, because I can use it to load the Windows 7 installer on my friend's laptop. It's just these computers that I can't get it to work with.

If you've got a machine with 7 on it already that'll work, too.If the drive works in other hardware.Well I dunno. View image here.
