I didn't sort through all the posts here; can you have other stuff on the flash drive besides the Win 7 files and have it still work?

crazyeyesreaper · Jan 23, 2010

no idea to be honest i got it to just work after about 100 damn tries :roll:

my guess is no

I had office ony my driver too. I dont know if you guys seen this but you can make an all in one drive too. I now have one usb stick that will install home premium, professional, ultimate and enterprise in 32bit and 64bit flavors. It works awesome.

Too bad you cant unthank people. Rude people suck. Your threads not that great to be bossing others around in it.

I did something similar on a laptop,, I took out the hdd & copied the windows 7 file on the hdd & put it back into the laptop & windows 7 booted from the hdd & installed..

I took the time to make my own guide, so why should someone else come in and hijack my thread? If anything, you are the rude one sir and I do not appreciate fingers being pointed at me when I made my hopes for this thread perfectly clear.

Generally, people dont mind having all the information in the one thread. That's the normal order of business here. All contest posted on TPU belongs to TPU, and all that.

What you're asking for (this is my thread, all glory to me - or gtfo) is definitely abnormal. The only reason i complied, was that i couldn't be bothered arguing.

ShRoOmAlIsTiC · Jan 25, 2010

sorry I really dont think its hijacking when someone points out an opinion that isnt exactly as yours. Yes that was rude of me to point fingers but the way your acting is nont what this forum is all about. people appreciate that you did post this tutorial but its also nice knowing that "your way" isnt the only absolute way of doing things. Im pretty sure that your not the one who thought of this anyways, you most likey learned it from someone elses online tutorial and posted it in a way that was easiest for you.

Mods if Kyle2020 wants it you may delete my "rude" posts. But I truly believe that the way he handled that was wrong but so is the way im handling it.

kyle2020 · Jan 25, 2010

Ok, I'm in the wrong. Guys, go nuts over different methods, I dont update this thread often anyway, ill delete my posts and be on my way. Sorry for an rude behaviour or anything disruptive to staff.
