Step 2: Mount The Windows 8 ISO Image Into A Virtual Drive USB Drive, USB Stick, Windows 7,
Windows 8
If you dont have a physical optical drive you should mount the image into a virtual drive. You
can install and use PowerISO
Im assuming that F is your drive letter with Windows 8 ISO image and G: is the location of Sta82 on WiNToBootic
your external hard disk (or ash drive) . Open the command prompt screen (as bootable usb drive windows

After the above step, dont close the command prompt (at least not yet). At this moment your
new external hard disk or ash drive is bootable but you need to execute one more command
in order to transfer the les to your new drive. You have to type the following command line:
xcopy f:\*.* g: /e /f /h
Again replace the drive letters with the ones that apply to you. Alternatively you can copy all
the les in the virtual drive to the ash drive or external hard drive by using Windows
Explorer, but using XCOPY ensures that system and hidden les are also copied.
To use and boot from your newly created drive on your netbook or computer, rst you have
to set your computer you must set it to boot through the USB ash drive. In order to do this
shut down your computer, go in the CMOS setup by pressing the DEL or F2 key when the
computer power on, without unplug the newly created external hard drive or USB Flash Drive
from the machine. Set the device as the primary boot option, save the changes BIOS and
restart. On newer computers you can boot from the device without entering into BIOS by
pressing either ESC, F9 or F11 (dierent key on dierent manufacturers).
Now you can install Windows as usual. Please be aware that if youve changed the boot
sequence in the BIOS, remember to change it back as it was after copying the les (usually
after rst automatic reboot).
