Ever wondered how you boot or instal Windows 7 using an USB Flash Drive? While it may not be a very easy process, in reality, it isn’t rocket science and even novices will be able to do it.

Installing the OS using the USB Flash Disk method, is not only possible for Windows 7 but also for Windows Vista and Windows XP — all you need to do is to create a bootable Flash drive with the system files.

Yes, and no. This is one of those delicate balancing acts between what the end user wants and what IT can afford and support.

IT pros were once the alpha end users, on the leading edge of innovation and early adoption. You could count on the IT department to always be the first to explore a new gadget or software tool, starting way back with the first PCs and continuing up to the BlackBerry. We were always playing with the latest beta, the newest option, even that Internet thingy.

No more. IT organizations have evolved away from that kind of hotbed of user-driven innovation and curiosity and morphed into having a more inward focus, more likely to say "no" than "wow."
