    Yes that's it John. I use Shawn's tutorial Elevated Command Prompt Shortcut and then put the shortcut in my Start menu. :)

    Well, I'm a beginner and my English is not so good, but I will try my best to describe my question.
    I had learned the installation steps but I'm puzzled by the WARNING .
    Here,
    • You can only create a 64-bit Windows 7 bootable USB flash drive if your current Windows 7 installation is also 64-bit.


    • You can create a 32-bit Windows 7 bootable USB flash drive if your current Windows 7 installation is 32-bit or 64-bit.

    I'm wondering that, how can I create a 32-bit flash drive in a 64-bit installation while I can only create a 64-bit flash drive if my current installation is also 64-bit?
    Thanks very much!:)

    Hello Kylee, and welcome to Seven Forums.

    It means that you can create a 32-bit USB in both a 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 7, but will only be able to create a 64-bit USB in a 64-bit Windows 7.

    So, that means:

    64-bit installation + 64-bit ISO = 64-bit flash drive
    64-bit installation + 32-bit ISO = 32-bit flash drive
    32-bit installation + 32-bit ISO = 32-bit flash drive
    32-bit installation + 64-bit ISO = unable to create the flash drive

    Is that correct?

    Oh well, thanks.:)
    And question two: in some very early replys, there was a talk about E:\boot\bootsect.exe /nt60 H:
    but I can't see this instruction in the installation steps. Is this instruction a optional or necessary?

    Yeah, that part was just redundant, so it was removed from the steps in the tutorial.
