@Kevin
I don’t know what to say! For your kind information, Microsoft has given the how to make bootable usb in its WinPE help guide. Do download and read it before making such comments.

“just because [...]“? It’s kinda cute how you ignored the other points. The order of the commands is important, but they do _not_ have to be executed in that exact order.

Furthermore, I’m even more convinced you have no idea what any of the commands posted do – as you’re misleading users into thinking that bootsect doesn’t work on XP installs or vista installs with XP as the target. It’s a matter of changing the /n60 argument to /nt52 for it to use the master boot code that’s compatible with NTLDR (rather than BOOTMGR, which is what Vista/7 uses).

To quote you in case you decide to go deleting it:

Looks like you guys did a great job copying the instructions from here:
“link removed”

Way to pass it off as your own.

@Padam
How can you say that just because order of commands are same? You know, one can’t create a bootable disk by entering those commands in random order. So steps will be same if you refer other sites too. I can’t blame other sites for that right? You need to execute the step 1 first and then 2.. You can’t reverse it!

You should really give the _original author_ credit, instead of pretending like you wrote this guide yourself.

Just a couple of weeks after it’s posted here:

“link removed”
You turn around and post it here.

You can try to deny it, but it’s the _exact_ same steps in the _exact_ same order, on top of using the _exact_ same commands, again, in the _exact_ same order.

Plagiarism is baaaaaad.

In case you get error message “Access Denied” in the last step you may need to start “Virtual Disk” service from Start->Run->services.msc
