Need help. want to create bootable win7 64bit iso with usb-stick (using 32bit xp)

In order for me to boot from an USB stick with my ASUS motherboard, i have to have it on "force FDD": if i leave it on "Auto", it won't boot from it. If, since then, i booted from HDD but i want to boot from the USB stick again, i have to go into BIOS and select that "force FDD" again or it won't work.

Could it be that your problem is similar to this? I have never owned a Biostar motherboard so i don't really know :(

EDIT

My USB stick has only 2 GB, btw.

jeah, that could be the problem
 
im back with good news! i got hands on a 4gb flashstick, now winsetupfromusb somehow writes a grub4 bootsector to mbr, the prog did neither on my mp4.... the stick also has 3 times the read and write speeds... i will try to install windows 7 now and post results later
 
This is how i install win 7
Unzip the folder
copy folder to win 7 on usb
run the setup through windows off the usb

It will dual boot once its done
 
im on win7 right now. wnt truh 3 reboots or so till installed, but now im pleased. it was indeed a faulty,cheap mp4player not working properly.

thank you for all your help!
