[QUOTE="Tabeer, post: 581377, member: 46151"] To make the USB device bootable, you need to run a tool named bootsect.exe. In some cases, this tool needs to be downloaded from your Microsoft Store account. This may happen if you're trying to create a 64-bit bootable USB device from a 32-bit version of Windows. To download bootsect: [LIST=1] [*]Login to your Microsoft Store account to view your purchase history [*]Look for your Windows 7 purchase. [*]Next to Windows 7, there is an "Additional download options" drop-down menu. [*]In the drop-down menu, select "32-bit ISO." [*]Right-click the link, and then save the bootsect.exe file to the location where you installed the Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool (e.g. %UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Apps\Windows 7 USB DVD Download Tool). [*]Once the file has been saved, go back to the Windows 7 USB/DVD Download tool to create your bootable USB device. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
