Yes you can use the download tool to burn the DVD. You only need the special Rufus tool to format UEFI flash stick
That's what I suggest:
Burn DVD
Keep UEFI boot mode
Install from DVD and see if it works
I'll try next monday because I'm out of office !
If you have an ISO you could burn it, otherwise we have to wait
Are you using a USB2 port to try to boot the installation stick? There are no USB3 drivers in the Win7 installation media. A USB3 port is usually blue inside.
As that is a WIndows 8 netbook, where did you get Win7? How do you plan to activate it?
If you already own a WIn7 license, for what version is it? How much RAM does the netbook have as you might want to install 32 bit if 3gb RAM or less, in which case you'd disable UEFI.
