808489 2009-09-10 04:06:00 Windows 7 i got the iso arlready whellington (15030)
808490 2009-09-10 04:13:00 If you mean you want to install Windows 7 to a flash drive, then you will need to Burn it to a DVD and then get one that's bigger than 3GB, probarbly a 16GB one

If you want to install Windows 7 from a flash drive (for example burn the ISO to the flash drive) then unetbootin (my previous post) might work, or else try these instructions here: maketecheasier.com
