Just recently put my ISO on the flash drive this morning and will attempt installing sometime tomorrow when I get a moment.

Thanks D for making a vid! You rock

DaMulta · Jan 14, 2009, 12:27 AM

Now I didnt try it without the NTFS format, but I think it needs to at least be fat32.

I looked around with google and seen no one installs their o/s from a flash drive. I found out that it works very very well.

Well you know if I come back and start p***in and moanin at you. . . .

you can add &fmt=18 to end of the video address to watch it in high quality. add &fmt=22 for HD, but that doesn't work on this video,

I found you can do it in your profile settings also. Yea I just made it in MP4 really quick I knew that it worked.....

Next time going to try and get the higher hd video running with the widescreen, AND sound

the profile thing doesn't work if the youtube player doesn't show "Watch in High Quality". Then the video plays in low quality.

To enable High Quality if the "Watch in High Quality" link doesn't appear, use &fmt=18

Well D, I ended up having to burn a DVD. My DFI board must not like it cause I followed everything, NTFS Format and extract with WinRAR (I own a license and use 3.80 Pro). Came back invalid boot disk press enter.

I wonder why it didn't like it.

I didn't do a quick format did you?
