Windows 7: Install multiple iso to one jump drive.

Is there anyway to make a bootable jump drive with all windows os on it? I need one for work. Everything I have found will only let me do one OS. I need Vista 32 and 64bit, 7 32 and 64 bit, and XP Pro.



If anyone know please let me know cause I'm at a loss.

Welcome to the forum,

Have you seen this?

YUMI - Multiboot USB Creator (Windows) | USB Pen Drive Linux

Yes. I have tried YUMI and it only lets me do one iso. When it ask me to add another iso, the Windows vista/7 option goes away. I did try to use the "try and unlisted iso" option and still nothing

Thanks for the welcome.

Hello The Cursed One, welcome to Seven Forums!


Have a look at these tutorials linked below.

Windows 7 Universal Installation Disc - Create

ISO - Disk Image File : Extract to the Desktop

I already have 7 with both 32 and 64bit and one for vista, but how do you put them on one jump drive to boot from.

Here have a good look at thsi one.

Install Windows 7 from USB Pen Drive/External Hard Disk Using Grub4Dos

I write the Windows 7 ISO to flash stick using Ultra ISO trial version: On File tab Write ISO or Open DVD, on Bootable tab Write Disk Image, Format, Write.

What will be there after this operation is the seven Windows 7 install folders, which I sweep into their own folder until they are needed and then spill them into the root.

I can do the same with Vista extracted to the same pen drive, but have not tried it with different bit versions. It's worth trying, but I just use separate pen drives for now.

I can also keep all of my tools for install on the same pen drive in their folders. and it doesn't interfere with bootability once the chosen OS has its folder spilled into the root to boot for install.

It is said recently here that these flash installers cannot be used for Repairs because their boot sector will be read as Windows 7 boot, however I have never experienced this and would like to hear from others about this.

I did some more research and from what I read on other forums is that it not going to happen. They say that windows had to have files on the root of the drive. So if you put more than one iso on the drive it would have to have files on the root of the drive for each os, and when you do this windows doesn't know what file to use or reads the wrong file.

I'm not giving up on this that easy. There has to be a way to get every os on one drive.

This well do what you want if you'd actually look at it.

If you mean a system repair flash drive, they work perfectly well. One way to make them would be to dump the contents of a system repair disk to a bootable ufd. The other way that I use is to copy off various files from C:\windows\boot folder to the primary partition of the ufd, then copy off boot.sdi and winre.wim from recovery locations on the hard disk to the ufd partition, and mark the ufd partition active.
