    Install Windows 7 FAST without a DVD or USB device[3]=Installation%20and%20Setup

    Would that tutorial work to install Windows 7 on a USB external drive, since the setup of windows 7 deosnt let you install on a USB, but this seems to bypass setup.

    About one report per week of another Win7 install to USB flash or HD.

    But it's deadly slow, by all reports.
