Just format the usb with ntfs, and put the cd contents on the usb. Boot it from the bios, and it should work.

Oh wait, nevermind. you're right, it is only 3.1GB. I got confused and though it was like 6 for some reason.

Hero, this is what I did... format my USB to NTFS then I just copy the files and paste it into the flash drive?
I'm going to be using the faXcool Windows 7 Ultimate 7600 RTM Final, do you know if this file has any issue before I reformat it?

I have like the 2.33 gb version. It was the one leaked with the language packs that can be downloaded I believe.

| Never used it. I got one from warez-bb but I dont remember. i'd get the final copy instead of 7600. I'm sure they have a fake crack thing to stop the timer right?

Windows 7 doesnt have language packs. When you get it running, you go to windows update and it shows 36 downloads just for languages. And it takes a hella long time to install.

When installing I had the option to install language packs. Then, the same language packs popped up in my WinUpdate. Didn't do it either time.
