So im having issues with my PNY 8gb Flash drive that im trying to use to install 7 onto my desktop. The problem is that whenever I insert it into my computer and try and boot off it, (Clean install btw) even though the bios menus detect the drive when I boot it acts as though it didnt insert. Please help I need my desktop

Did you make a Bootable USB Flash drive win7 install ?

When you have the bios set to boot from USB, USB should be inserted first with computer turned OFF.

Inserted before boot and it still did the same thing. It is a windows seven 32 bit install

do you have an option to force the BIOS to boot from the USB? Something like this:

Sometimes one method doesnt work so you need to try another.

The one which always works for me is to install UltraISO trial, open ISO on File tab, select Write Image on Bootable tab, then Format, Write.
