Since we have already explained what iso files are and how to mount/extract/burn an iso image, you shouldn’t be surprised if we tell you that you can install Windows 7 on your PC with the help of an iso file and you don’t even need an installation CD for that purpose.
You can buy and download it easily from the Microsoft store (iso file). When you buy a copy of the Windows 7 ISO file and download it to your computer, you have two options to do it.
First, you can create a bootable DVD. The second option would be to create a bootable USB flash drive. After creating the bootable media, you can install Windows 7 easily from it.
You can burn an iso file on a DVD using Windows 7’s built-in ISO image writer. Now the question is how to create a bootable USB flash drive from this file? As always, we are here to help. This article will walk you through the step-by-step process to create it using a tool called the Windows 7USB/DVD download tool.
Here are the steps.
1. Download and install the Windows 7USB/DVD download tool.
2. Open it and click the “Browse” button to select the ISO file from the download location.
3. After selecting the ISO file, click the “Next” button.
4. Now you have to select the storage device to create the Windows 7 boot drive. If you choose the USB drive then you can burn the ISO file to the USB drive and if you choose DVD then you can create a bootable DVD. Since here we plan to create a bootable USB drive, we choose the first option.
5. Plug in the NTFS formatted USB device. Note that the device size must be larger than 4GB. Click the “Start Copy” button.
6. It will start the burning process. It will take some time. When the process is finished (100% copying complete), close the application.
7. Now go to windows explorer to open the USB drive. You will see all the installation files inside the drive.
8. You can use this USB drive as a boot device. The only thing you need to do is restart the computer, go to BIOS settings and change the boot order inside the BIOS settings from CD/DVD to USB flash drive. That will ensure that the system checks the USB drive before booting.
That’s it. If you want to buy Windows 7 then you can use this process. It reduces shipping costs and saves you time. You can also test drive Windows 7 before you buy.
