Install without dvd or usb

[roby777]

Someone earlier mentioned an option to install windows 7 from iso image that is placed on hard drive through repair option but i can`t find it.

To install without having to burn a DVD, simply extract the contents of the ISO image with winrar or 7zip to a seperate drive or partition or even a USB stick and run the setup.exe file... thats all there is to it...

No problem

If there is enough space on a partition where you can put a 2.5 gig file its easy to just extract the iso to a folder and run setup from there the computer will automatically find the files on reboot and it chould work fine. Do yourself a favor and backup if you have the room

I always install from HD. I park the image on D:\ and run setup. Formatting isn't necessary because since there is an OS on it already its already formatted. If your really want to you could del the C: partition but that overkill
