Sometime it’s frustrating trying to install or update your windows with software through CD/DVD.
Here am going to show you how to make your flash drive a bootable drive and use it for your installation of windows.
Step 1:
Open your Cmd as administrator by clicking on the windows icon and search cmd
Type diskpart in the cmd then press enter
Step 2:
Type or copy and paste List disk in the cmd then press enter
Step 3:
You select the Flash drive by typing select disk 6 or any other name of your disk, which in this case is disk 6 then press enter
Step 4:
After selecting the disk, you type clean in the cmd then press enter. This command deletes all data in the flash drive.
Step 5:
Now you have to create partition on the flash drive by typing create partition primary in the cmd and press enter.
Step 6:
Now you select the partition you just created by typing select partition 1 in the cmd then press enter.
Step 7:
To
format the partition selected, type format fs=fat32
quick in the cmd and press enter.
Note
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. Step 8:
Now you type active in the cmd then press enter
Step 9:
Type exit in the cmd to exit the flash drive then you put an image in the root of the flash.
