We will be putting the Linux / Open source topic aside for now. As this feels like a more pressing matter 🙂
As we said in the Acer Netbook repair post that we will post about making bootable USB for Windows and Linux
We will be looking into making A bootable USB for Windows, this is very useful in case you have a Laptop with a damaged DVD-R or you need to fix a Netbook that has no DVD-R at all!!
Bootable USBs are really handy! From boot repairs to much faster windows installations. So here is my fail proof tutorial!
First of all you are going to need an ISO. The ISO is a digital clone of the DVD. If you can download one of the internet that is good! But I’m going to assume that you don’t know where to get it, or don’t have a good connection. And I’ll show you how to make one very easily.
All you need to do is to download and install InfraRecorder. It’s a free and open-source software that is used to burn CD’s and DVD’s. And make digital images. Download it from here.
