Hello, Currently I have Windows Vista Home Premium. I am wanting
to switch to Windows 7 Ultimate x32 bit. My computer is 32 bit. I
downloaded the x84 .iso . Now I have a 16 gb flash drive and have
tried booting it with 2 programs, yumi and linuxdrive. Both have
failed me. I am going to work with the free version of poweriso
and hope that helps. Any recommendations etc? Advice.
I have had my fair share of installing an OS off of a USN. (Installed ubuntu like 15-20 times on my old PC. No not kidding)
I once used http://www.isotousb.com/
That worked for me. Also, shove it in your PC, then boot off the USB. Although I'm sure you already knew how to do that.
"Cannot create a bootable disk" It says. I have literally given up on trying to upgrade to windows 7.
Why don't you use the official Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool.
Make sure you use an unmodified Win 7 .ISO
Also change boot order on your BIOS.

Yes I tried the official Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool. It said my .iso file was not valid.
I downloaded my file from http://www.w7forums.com/threads/official...ads.12325/
And yes I know all about changing the boot order.
Hmm, ok. Try this one: http://www.linuxliveusb.com/en/download
Select "ISO" when you get the program up. That should work.
Also, he doesn't have to change the boot order lol, he can just select which drive to boot off of, and he can select the usb there.

and it was not allowing me to boot because it could not find (hd 0,1)
after I find /boot/grub/stage1
So I am still out of luck. I do not know the problem.
Did you verify the hashes from the .ISO ?
Maybe is corrupted, I have done this many times with no problem.

EDIT: I am now booting with the official Windows 7 tool. I downloaded a new version. Thanks!

I doubt the .iso from Windows7Forums are corrupted to be honest. These are the official Windows 7 .iso provided by Microsoft and this thread have been up for a long time now.
Also Agoff, where did you download the Windows 7 DVD/USB Download Tool the first time ?

My era of providing technical support and malware removal on HackForums is over, so you can stop PM'ing me about it. Sorry.

Do you still need help with this? I know 3 programs that work, I've made tons of bootable flash drives.

Fixed thank you. (Closed Now). Thanks Aura
