I really like you explain it all in such a calm and friendly way that it didn't confuse me at all. It was like a walk in the park for me in my first time! Thank you so much!
five years later and this video helped me out thanks for being so clear about what to do made it easy for me and has fixed a problem ive been having for weeks
I purchased a NUC mini kit and could not create a bootable drive. No, I'm not tech savvy, but I'm stubborn. I tried many methods for days. Yet I stumbled onto this video and it was easy and worked like a charm and because I had updated windows 7 to windows 10 it updated auto. Thanks a million.
hi, when i done bootsect.exe/nt60 J: then i enter i got "could not map drive partitions to the associated volume device objects: access is denied." nd i followed all the steps.. then give me solun. pls
even if you are the admin of your system, you need to run CMD as administrator. Windows 7 sometimes makes no sense, but that's the way it is. Take it or leave it. LOL! Like a boss! :D
Dude you rule. I was having a nightmare trying to mount an ISO of windows on a USB. You're tutorial worked beautifully and I got my new build up and running.
after i run the bootsect.exe/nt60 line i get this: "This tool can only be run on systems booted using a PC/AT BIOS. This system was booted using EFI or some other firmware type." please help.

There are 100's of directional videos on youtube but yours is the best! Easy 123 step to follow and it worked like a charm. Thanks for sharing you saved me hours of searching!
if your making this usb on win 10 machine then just right click ISO and select mount. It will then become a virtual drive and you can follow accordingly. Thats how I did it
Awesome vid man. Well made, easy to follow, an worked perfect every time. I had been pulling my hair out the past 2 days. I was building a computer out of used parts and formatted the hdd. Which , I think erased the Boot Manager. After building, it gave me a "Bootmgr is missing" "press control alt delete and restart". Numerous TH-cam vids say to use the Windows disk and select repair repair. My system would not boot from the cd-rom for nothing. And yes, I did adjust the boot order in bios. The cd-rom was good. After trying everything I could find and try....I made a Bootable USB windows from your video and selected to boot from the USB in bios, and presto, fixed the bootmgr and installed windows. Thanks.

Awesome. Had a problem when I entered "clean" saying that access was denied, but then I simply reentered the clean command and it worked after that with no other changes. Thanks again.
Thank you so much a milion times. I have actually done this before but I have forgoten exact steps and comands and while searching I got all wrong from other people. You were the only one who explained proper and easy. Im subscribing. Thank you 😊😊😊
cd boot is actualy command to "change directory" to boot folder on your dvd drive. if u get that error it means there is no such folder on your windows dvd. check your dvd drive or try to load different windows boot dvd. U might have damaged dvd and system cant find path to target.
Could not map drive partitions to the associated volume device objects: Access is denied. I get this message when I enter the bootsect.exe command. how do I fix this?
Where is everyone getting a full Windows 7 (in my case, Pro version) CD/DVD or even an ISO file ? Computer OEM's haven't provided a Windows OS CD in years. I bought my Dell & instead of Windows 8, I insisted on Windows 7 OS, but even then they included a Windows 8 Reinstallation CD only! Btw, the best tutorial I've seen yet. Thanks!
When entering in bootsect.exe.nt60 f: I am getting error: This tool can only be run on systems booted using PC/AT BIOS. This system was booted using EFI or some other firmware type... I have quadruple checked. I am certainly entering in the correct drive letters where needed, and am still receiving this error.. Anybody have a solution to this?
William Harmon before you bootsect.exe, make sure you put "(DISKDRIVE):cd boot" first, for example d: cd boot, then cd boot again, bootsect... try again.
After you assign and exit, Type ua drive letter of windows OS. Eg: E: Now without typing cd boot and all just type... bootsect/nt60 F: Substitute F: with your USB drive letter. Done.
No Prob; If you dont have DVD Rom in your system... You Can How! follow the step below... => Go to Google.com and download software (Virtual_CD_10.1.0.12.) if you find any version does't matter, download and install. => it will make extra Virtual CD/DVD Drive in your system... Check my computer. => write click on BD Rom Drive and select Virtual CD and select your ISO File of Windows 7 (if you dont have download Windows 7 ISO file) => once it fully inserted to your drive... that will seems like your DVD. Now you have DVD ROM in your System. => Enjoy
Thank you so much for this video. I've never used a USB for windows up load before and your step by step guide to make a Bootable USB Drive was great. Worked right off the bat. Thanks again.
Probably very late. But if you have windows in ISO format, simply use program like PowerISO, create a virtual drive and mount the Windows iso image on that drive. That way you will have "virtual cd drive". It sounds complicated but it's quite easy. Look up some tutorials on how to do it online if you don't understand
After I run bootsect.exe/nt60 i: I get " This tool can only be run on systems booted using PC/AT Bios. This system was booted using EFI or some other firmware type. Please help. Thank you.
Quick format is faster because of nothing else but the fact that the command doesn't actually format the drive, it just erases everything on it. Use the command without the "quick" parameter anyway. Also, if you encounter any problems, as i did, if the drive isn't active in the end or if it, for some reason, won't boot, format the drive using windows (right click>format, with the "quick format" option unchecked), prior to formatting it in cmd. All in all - nice tut, i've learnt something.
It's late to reply but maybe it can help others. Make sure you are at "diskpart>" otherwise, exit command while at the cmd prompt will simply exit out of cmd.
Man, this is the BEST. I was reading other postings after I googled it. I thought I was doing everything correct, well, I was forgetting to put the d: cd boot as stated, I kept typing cd d:\boot, if would not work, then I came upon your post, then as a LIGHT turned on, as I listened and watched, I found my mistake. Wasn't paying attention when I typed that specific command, after I did everything worked great. Yes, it was my fault, Attention to Detail, but THANKS for the post.
+chrysler I know its been 9 months, but maybe this will work technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj200124%28v=ws.11%29.aspx If your server platform supports *Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI)*, you should format the USB flash drive as *FAT32 rather than as NTFS*. To format the partition as FAT32, type format fs=fat32 quick, and then click ENTER. Hope this helps someone
After you assign and exit, Type ua drive letter of windows OS. Eg: E: Now without typing cd boot and all just type... bootsect/nt60 F: Substitute F: with your USB drive letter. Done.
As adnan says, you have to right-click on the cmd little icon and select "run as administrator". The first time you type "exit" is when you are in DISKPART> , so, your window should not close, cause you're LEAVING that directory DISKPART and going back to C:/Windows/systemXX>
Thank you for the great instructions. I was working from a list and kept making mistakes. The visual made this very easy and now I have a boot flash drive.

virgilio casale Uproar aR SilentlyFrosty you guys must download bootsect.exe for 32.bit i can give you a link right here getintopc.com/softwares/utilities/bootsect-exe-free-download/
You have no idea how hard for me to do things just like you did. Though it's basic, but but hard for me...With your video guys...I now know few basic works(trouble shooting) with regards of PC's...Guys...your of GREAT HELP not just to me but also people out there..THANKS...more power...
Gravel Hunter...This is an awesome tutorial for creating the USB bootable install device. Very easy to follow, but most important it works!! Thank you!!
hi mugenpirates! great instructional video... question-- this instruction making the usb bootable--right? bootsect command.. i upgraded from 80gb hdd to 1tb hdd... tried seagate discwizard but the cloned hdd seem to not boot properly... im thinking; with this process making 1tb bootable then just copy ALL contents on my 80gb to the 1tb-- would the windows bootup???
Great video....but i got a question for you is it possible to have both windows 7 and windows 8 (64bit) OS on the same flash drive or will it cause some form of corruption??
Also remember that certain Flash Drives use File System "NTFS" and others use File System "FAT32". So when you run command prompt > "format fs=ntfs" it will encounter a formatting error. In such a case it means that the flash drives File System is "FAT32" by default. So the command prompt you will run should be > "format fs=fat32"
This was perfect! The only thing I would like to add is that to get to the command prompt as administrator for windows 8.1, you just right click on the windows start icon at the bottom left, and select command prompt (admin) first. Otherwise, this worked perfectly for me. Thanks very much for the help!
hey brother, nice guidance there in the video. i have a question, infact a couple of questions. 1- once we make USB a bootable usb, can we use it again as a flash drive? 2- i have to install window 7 in my hp 110-3500 netbook, how can i install that as i dont have any external optical drive? except for making USB bootable, as i already learnt that from ur tutorial. 3-any way i can download a valid, window 7 with an active key product? waiting for ur reply. thanx in advance.
Hi, thanks for sharing this video. I just wanna ask is this useful for formatting and installing windows 7 if there is a pop up message tells that device driver is missing can i use my flash drive and was the said problem solve?
Your training video really helped me with my serious problem that I had with this Lenovo G700 BIOS boot setting. Thank you very much for being so concise. Your instructions saved me a lot.
Great, perfectly clear, well done instructions. BUT - I got way into this, formatted the 8G flash drive, then realized that I don't have a Win 7 installation disk. MY machine came with Win 7 preinstalled and a Win 10 upgrade disk. I do not want to go to 10 now, but I'd like a Win 7 bootable flash drive. What can I do? I bought this machine directly from Dell, XPS 8900.
ok Question. Do you have to click and drag over at the end "Files ready to be written to the disc" it has the desktop under it that you dragged over also at the 7:20 mark....I did not drag over that on mine will it work.
Sir what if my USB no need to clean because this is new and Empty can i procced to copying the files of bootable is that OK ? or need to follow the video?
Brilliant work....I can't tell how happy this video made me. Suck great work explaining how to do it from start to finish...you should be a teacher my friend.
sandisk is a good usb ? tell me a good usb. And it has to be necessary 4 gb? it can't be 8 or bigger? i have one usb pen drive 16 gb kingstone but sucks so badly. i have a lot of errors ,i had waiting 8 hours to format in cmd and at you i saw it in few seconds.
So how large of a Thumb drive do you need ? I guess you are not installing the entire Operating system on the thumb drive ? I was going to use a Patriot Rage 2, 256Gb thumb drive but that is overkill , Thought I needed to install the entire operating system on it
You are awesome man but i dont understand last step after copy all data from CD drive to USB drive? what you was telling about F8 key? i dont understand that?
Very awesome guide man thanks a bunch. It has been a while since i messed with command prompt even though I grew up with using it on the very first computers that where sold. But thanks again!!!!
I am using this to install windows 10 on a new pc I just built. The parts arrive in a few days, so I hope it all works out. Thank you for the tutorial!
This was the best USB tutorial I've seen ! BUT I have a question. My sata 250 GB HD drive is about to go down on my Dell Vostro 200 with 4 Gs of mem. running Win 7Pro, This Unit was originally loaded with XP. I have a Key to 7pro and need to know best way to replace the HD Drive???
Hey, all the steps up until the "cd boot" commands worked flawlessly. I was wondering if it was because I have a digitally mounted copy of the installation disc. As in, I don't have the physical disk, but I am using Daemon Tools to mount it digitally. So, I was just wondering what I might to fix this. Other than this, great tutorial with easy and clear directions!
Excellent tutorial mate...only prob I got is that my computer doesn't recognize my cd-rom,, any ideas on a fix ?? Been into device manager etc with no luck so far
You forgot to mention that a person attempting this needs to be using the same "OS" as the boot disk or CMD prompt will through a error stating it cant be done. Like trying to make a 64bit bootable USB on a 32bit system. It wont work, the OS you are using and the boot disk have to match. Other then that you did a fine job on you presentation.
Amazing Tutorial, congrats!!! I had the problem "could not map drive partitions to the associated volume device objects: access is denied." If you have it, just create a shortcut for cmd and then right click it and run as administrator.
I like your Desktop background. What's the name of it. And the program that lists all the program in the desktop. I would like to arrange my Desktop just like yours. Can you inform me please.
I really like you explain it all in such a calm and friendly way that it didn't confuse me at all. It was like a walk in the park for me in my first time!
Thank you so much!

ok Question. Do you have to click and drag over at the end "Files ready to be written to the disc" it has the desktop under it that you dragged over also at the 7:20 mark....I did not drag over that on mine will it work.
Hola Amigo. I just wanted to thank you for the video you posted I followed the instructions and had no problems.
it worked fine thanks for your tutorial ... the question the setup file and the init files are not copying to the disk is there a reason for that?
Thanks for instruction, which were clear, concise and very good. The windows boot drive work a treat. Cheers
after creating my bootable usb, can i just copy the iso file to it directly?? or it should be the files inside the iso that should be copied??
What if I have all the files in a folder instead of having a windows cd? What steps should I take after the quick format. Thanks in advance
thank you so much for this video. You spoke clearly and you put up all your commands on the description so yeah, thanks a million
Great job man CD drive messed up and I've been having a hell of a time trying out different things and this video was my solution. Thank you.
One of the best tutorial ever. You are absolutely fantastic. Thanks for sharing.
Sir what if my USB no need to clean because this is new and Empty can i procced to copying the files of bootable is that OK ? or need to follow the video?
Brilliant work....I can't tell how happy this video made me. Suck great work explaining how to do it from start to finish...you should be a teacher my friend.
So great, thank you so much. every single site I went to did not explain how to turn the usb drive into a bootable one.
sandisk is a good usb ? tell me a good usb. And it has to be necessary 4 gb? it can't be 8 or bigger? i have one usb pen drive 16 gb kingstone but sucks so badly. i have a lot of errors ,i had waiting 8 hours to format in cmd and at you i saw it in few seconds.
So how large of a Thumb drive do you need ? I guess you are not installing the entire Operating system on the thumb drive ? I was going to use a Patriot Rage 2, 256Gb thumb drive but that is overkill , Thought I needed to install the entire operating system on it
It worked, thanks. Saved me $20 for a useless dvd player on my new build.
bahooot Khub Janab
what kind of USB did you use? As in make and model?
You are awesome man but i dont understand last step after copy all data from CD drive to USB drive? what you was telling about F8 key? i dont understand that?
Very awesome guide man thanks a bunch. It has been a while since i messed with command prompt even though I grew up with using it on the very first computers that where sold. But thanks again!!!!
Thx man, even after 4 years you video saved me. good job, very good tutorial

This is an excellent instructional video for creating this devise. Straight to the point, simple, I like it.
I am using this to install windows 10 on a new pc I just built. The parts arrive in a few days, so I hope it all works out. Thank you for the tutorial!
+SupremeAIIah How did it go?
This was the best USB tutorial I've seen ! BUT I have a question. My sata 250 GB HD drive is about to go down on my Dell Vostro 200 with 4 Gs of mem. running Win 7Pro, This Unit was originally loaded with XP. I have a Key to 7pro and need to know best way to replace the HD Drive???
After doing this i can easily plug that flash drive into pc and install windows from that?
Hi... I want to do this from flash drive to another flash drive, In part where you typed ,,cd boot,, what should i type? Tnx
great tutorial one question...after i enter list disk my flash drive is not in there...why? and how can i fix that? thanks
Hey, all the steps up until the "cd boot" commands worked flawlessly. I was wondering if it was because I have a digitally mounted copy of the installation disc. As in, I don't have the physical disk, but I am using Daemon Tools to mount it digitally. So, I was just wondering what I might to fix this. Other than this, great tutorial with easy and clear directions!
I got that too, but I just went back to "E: cd boot"
and then "cd boot" worked for some reason :P
Same here
Excellent tutorial mate...only prob I got is that my computer doesn't recognize my cd-rom,, any ideas on a fix ?? Been into device manager etc with no luck so far
I have used this more than 10 times till now! you are great! thank you!
very easy way to make a bootable cd/disk, thanks a lot dear. Plz carry on your great job in the future for relevant issue. Regards
For a complete NOOB with this kind of stuff, this worked brilliantly! thanks heaps!!
You forgot to mention that a person attempting this needs to be using the same "OS" as the boot disk or CMD prompt will through a error stating it cant be done. Like trying to make a 64bit bootable USB on a 32bit system. It wont work, the OS you are using and the boot disk have to match. Other then that you did a fine job on you presentation.
simple, fast, easy to understand ... thumbs up!
awesome!!! its been a while since i used DOS commands but it still works like a charm. amazing. thx a lot bro, saved me a lot of time.
Amazing Tutorial, congrats!!! I had the problem "could not map drive partitions to the associated volume device objects:
access is denied." If you have it, just create a shortcut for cmd and then right click it and run as administrator.
thanks so much. that was so easy to follow. I copied and pasted the commands. only had to change the directory letters.
Hey bro! Is it normal to have different size of windowbas i have 3.47gb and in ur video you have 3.96gb ???
this is the best tutorial i have seen on doing this. thanks
I like your Desktop background. What's the name of it. And the program that lists all the program in the desktop. I would like to arrange my Desktop just like yours. Can you inform me please.
