Hello friends...
Installing Windows from a USB flash drive has several advantages – First of all, the overall speed of the installation process will increase significantly, carrying a USB stick is much more convenient than a DVD, and finally it becomes possible to install the OS even on those systems that do not have a DVD drive, such as a netbook.
You can create a boot-able USB using software provided by Microsoft. But one of my friend told me that he was not able to make his USB boot-able using this software. So, here is the post to make any USB boot-able without any software, using command prompt.
