Installation - Feeling Lost
Hi everyone,
So my school burned me an installation DVD of Windows 7. I want to install it on my DVD-drive-less PC. I have a DVD drive & USB drives on my laptop. I scoured the internet for tutorials on how to do the DVD to USB thing, finding out I need a .iso file. My installation DVD has no .iso file. So I attempted the following tutorial:
How to Create a Bootable ISO from Windows 7 Installation Files:
Bootable ISO - Create from Installation Files
My student DVD has none of the following files:
Windows 7-HP-Retail-en-us-x64.exe
* setup1.box * setup2.box
Though, it does have a setup.exe. Do I follow the aforementioned tutorial with setup.exe instead of Windows 7-HP-Retail-en-us-x64.exe, setup1.box, and setup2.box?
If not, how in the world do I begin to install Windows 7 on my DVD-drive-less PC (other than buying a DVD drive)?
