I just received my new Corsair 16GB Survivor Stealth USB Flashdrive. Is it possible to make the USB drive bootable...yet still able to store regular files (word docs, pictures, mp3's etc.) without compromising the ability to make it boot if needed?

Made Bootable Flash Drive Won't Recognize Usb?

Apr 15, 2011

I have a USB Kingston DataTraveler 2 GB jump drive that my wife uses with our philips stereo. I used HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool 2.2.3 with some Windows 95 files to create a bootable USB. After i was done I deleted everything on it and put mp3s back on. The stereo says "no audio found". I used Acronis Disk Director 11 to delete the partition and put FAT32 partition on there. Same thing with the stereo saying no audio found.

Creating A Bootable Flash Drive To Install Win 7

Jan 1, 2010

I noticed on the forums over the last few months, many people for one reason or another having problems getting their DVD drive to boot from their newly purchased Windows 7 DVD disks, but given that many retails and e-tailers will not accept boxed software returns, I thought I would write up a quick guide on how to create a bootable flash drive that you can install Windows 7 from. This guide can also apply to those who can boot from the DVD, but are having problems finishing the install process.

Bootable USB - Instant Flash Function In BIOS Settings

Apr 7, 2012

I am trying to update the BIOS of my 'ASrock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3' from v1.00 to v1.20. I am running Windows 7 64bit Ultimate. I got the BIOS file from: [URL]. It did not register the BIOS file I had put on my USB drive when going to my BIOS settings. There is an "Instant Flash" function in there. I have tried to make a bootable USB-drive to do it directly from DOS, but my drive can't be formatted as an MS-DOS boot drive. I have tried using HP DriveKey which seemed to work as intended, but it didn't work, the drive was still not recognized in bios. Do you think it's my drive? I don't have another drive with me right now to try it out. I know this is a not really a Windows 7 issue, but I couldn't find a proper category.

I currently have a disc copy of windows 7 and I am currently running it as my main OS as well. I was wondering just in case my computer decides to have a few issues is there anyway I can make a data partition to store windows 7 or put it on a flash drive so that in the incident of a hardware failure I would be able to go into my bios and boot the recovery partition or boot it from a flash drive allowing me to reinstall the OS.

Create A Bootable Usb Flash Drive To Install Windows 7 On Windows Xp?

Jan 2, 2012

my main pc got a new motherboard and requires a fresh install of windows 7. Ok, I have the windows 7 iso and I have the motherboard installed into my computer. I put the ISO on my flash drive but when I booted from the flash drive I got "Reboot and select a proper boot device or insert media in selected device and press a button." After 2 days and countless hours searching I can not get this to work. The computer I am on right now is a Windows XP 32x laptop. Is it even possible for me to make a usb drive loaded with windows 7 ultimate 64x for another computer? With every step by step guide I found on how to do this they either said to use the Windows 7 usb dvd download tool (which is what I have been using since the beginning to no avail) or do it manually. To do it manually involves the Diskpart feature of the command prompt, which on xp, doesnt detect flash drives. So...I cant do it manually.tell me if I have to reinstall my old motherboard (heatsink installation is a pain which is why I dread installing motherboards) and then upon reinstalling old motherboard do I have to set up my flash drive (again) and hope I didnt mess up just to rip the motherboard back out and put the new new one back in and hope the usb boots this time?

Bootable And Customized Windows 7/Windows XP OS On Flash USB

Jan 16, 2013

I want to create a bootable flash usb with a customized tiny Win7 of WinXP as a OS with a few admin tools i want to use for support on pc's/laptops.

Tools i want to use are like:
-Norton Ghost
-CCcleaner
-Malwarebytes Antivirus
-Ad Aware SE

The ideal scenario should be that i can choose a menu when the flash usb has started with the following:

1. Northon Ghost (to image a partition/disk to another HDD partition or disk))

2. A tiny OS of Win7 or WinXP (to start OS with some admin tools like CCcleaner ,Malwarebytes Antivirus ,Ad Aware SE )

3. MSDos or something else

I have been reading several websites and used tools like PE builder,WinToFlash or Winbuilder but i never could make it work like i described now..

Since I upgraded from Vista to Win7 Ultimate, using a Toshiba Satellite A210-FS1, I have lost the use of many F keys, some work some don't. I got a message stating that my Flash Cards will no longer work.I read at a few places that if I had to get the following, and install them in that same order and that everything should come back to normal.

-Chipset Utility v.15.38
-Display driver v.186.42
-toshiba value added package v.1.2.40
-Flash Card support utility v.1.55.0.4c for Windows Vista
-Toshiba utilities v.1.25.5c

Where I should get them, well I do not know. Furthermore, is it applicable to me and in my case?

Windows 7 Not Opening Flash Card?

May 11, 2012

I have a 4 GB flash card which i used on my mobile phone. It was out of my phone for about two weeks; during this time it saw no physical harm.Now when i put it back in my cell phone, it asks me for "memory card password" which i have no idea of and on the mobile's device manager it shows the memory card to be "locked".When i put it on the computer with my memory card reader even windows failed to open it.Attempts to troubleshoot it via windows failed and Recuva failed to scan it too.

USB Flash Card Reader Does Not Work In Windows 7?

Dec 5, 2011

I have some perfectly good USB flash-card readers from Transcend. They work just great on my XP office machine, and on my home machine if I dig out my XP boot drive and boot XP. But Win7 can't use flash in this device. Disk Management shows the correct size but can't show Properties; no drive letter is assigned, and I can't see the drives. They all work just find under XP.

I hesitate to go buy another brand of reader; USB is supposed to be plug-and-play.

Windows 7 System Repair On USB Flash Card

Feb 8, 2012

I have a laptop without CD/DVD burner. Tried to create System Repair Disc from Windows Backup Restore tool but it does not recognize virtual CD drive, networked CD drive, or flash memory as a target to write the Repair disc. I do not have an external USB CD/DVD burner and don't want to buy one just to do this (I can normally read/write CD/DVDs via network to my tower PC). I've researched many sites and have found no clear solution. I've created a bootable USB flash and can bring up the Norton tool, but can't find the files to even copy over to create a repair tool. Would appreciate if someone has actually done this to share how they built a USB flash version of the Repair disc.

New Graphics Card Causing Hard Freezes When Using Flash

May 17, 2012

I recently bought an MSI Twin Frozr III 7850 OC and whenever I open any kind of Flash video (x64 BTW) the computer freezes and sound becomes distorted. The only way to regain control of the system is to reboot it. I have no other troubles with it, plays games great, runs quiet, etc. I am running AMD catalyst 10.4, reinstalled driver multiple times, to no effect.

My system specs, if they're relevant:
Intel i5 2400
MSI Twin Frozr III 7850 OC
Asus P8P67-M Pro
Corsair GS 600W
Hitachi CoolSpin 1.5TB
Windows 7 Ultimate 64Bit SP1

2 Separate Bootable HDD And OS?

Aug 5, 2010

Have two HDD, one with Windows 7 professional 1TB SATA and other older win XP sp3 160gb SATA. To keep working environment separate, I use one HDD at a time, disconnecting other HDD. It used to work fine except 2 days back, when I had shut down winXP 160GB HDD with hibernation and after detaching that sata cord and reconnecting 1 TB sata cord, there was a major startup failure. With Windows 7 DVD RE, after opening system recovery dialogue box, no options were working including startup repair, system image recovery and system restore. In command prompt, c drive could not be detected. However, after bootrec.exe/fixmbr win 7 started but is a bit slower.How to avoid this problem? Does hibernation of one HDD interferes with startup of other HDD even though no RAM changes take place?. Does frequent change of HDD like this cause hardware/software damage?Specs - Core 2 duo 1.83ghz, 946gzis mb, 2gb RAM, ATI radeon 4850 512mb, VIP 600w smps.

Someone want to explain how the hell you make a bootable ISO from these leaked builds?

Everything I try is FUBAR.

Edit: Okay..nevermind..I Frankenstein it and figured it out finally..I just copied the install files onto my USB flash drive and rebooted and set to boot to USB drive.

No need for an ISO

Edit 2: ...Okay..I give up..I get an error during install saying Windows can't install the required files. The file may be corrupt or missing. bla bla

Anyone else getting this with the 32bit leaked copy that just came out?

Making And Using A Bootable USB Key?

Nov 10, 2011

I'm using an HP laptop and made a bootable flash key with the Microsoft utility (which I downloaded from Microsoft) to make a Windows 7 installation. I(supposedly) changed the boot order in the bIOS to look first at the key. Didn't work - booted directly into Windows 7 (seemingly bypassed the bootable key)1. How do I tell if the USB key is bootable?2. What could have prevented my BIOS from remembering my new boot order?3. What might be the reason(s) why my laptop won't boot from the USB key?�HP Pavilion dv5t-1000 CTO Entertainment Notebook PCSerial Number: CNF84816H3 Product Number: kq573av

Getting USB Formatted/bootable?

Mar 7, 2011

I am trying to make my 1TB eGo USB 2.0 Desktop Hard Drive bootable. I am running Win 7. The bios hardware supports booting from a USB drive, and I am able to select the USB drive from the boot menu. But when I choose the USB drive, I get: A disk read error occurred Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart I am able to read/write from the USB drive normally via Win 7 with no problems, but I am missing that something "bootable" - what is it? I used bootsect make the USB drive bootable.(the USB drive is formatted NTFS and could this matter � my computer is formatted 64 bit and the USB drive is formatted with whatever you get when you select NTFS -would that be 64bit in my case?)
