USB drives can not only be used to store and transfer files, but also to create boot drives for installing operating systems. Next, we will use a USB drive designed for system installation as an example to show you how to install Windows 10 using such a drive; we hope this will be helpful to everyone. http://www.zhuangjiyuan.com/forum.php?mod=attachment&aid=Mjg4Nzd8NGVmN2M1ZjJ8MTQ2NzQyMzcxOXwwfDEyMTQ4 Preparations before creating a USB boot drive (make sure to back up any important data on the USB drive before proceeding). 1. Prepare a boot USB drive created using installation software (it’s best to use a USB drive with at least 4GB of free space). For instructions on how to use this software to create a USB boot drive, you can click on the link below: Detailed step-by-step guide for creating a USB boot drive. 2. Download the Ghost Win10 system image file (click to download) ； http://www.zhuangjiyuan.com/forum.php?mod=attachment&aid=Mjg4Nzl8MjgyNjhlN2F8MTQ2NzQyMzcxOXwwfDEyMTQ4 Download the Ghost Win10 system image file. Step 1: Copy the Ghost Win10 system image package into the GHO folder on the USB drive – copy the downloaded system image package into that folder on the USB drive! As shown in the figure below: http://www.zhuangjiyuan.com/forum.php?mod=attachment&aid=Mjg4ODB8NDA1MzhhOTN8MTQ2NzQyMzcxOXwwfDEyMTQ4. Copy the Win10 system gho image file to a USB drive to complete this step. Step 2: Restart the computer; when the boot screen appears, press the “shortcut key” to directly enter the main interface of the installation tool! When we press the shortcut key, a window will appear. There are several options in that window; we need to find the USB drive and select it using the up and down arrow keys „↑↓“, then press Enter to enter the main interface of the installer! (Generally, when making a choice, we can check if one of the options is the English name of the USB or your flash drive’s brand – that would be our flash drive!) ) As for the example tutorials on accessing booting from a USB drive with one key, they will not be detailed here, as the shortcut keys for this purpose may vary depending on the computer. Therefore, the installer has prepared shortcut keys for various brand motherboards to enable one-click access to the Installer PE. We can search for our corresponding motherboard brand in the list below, and then see the shortcut key for starting Installer PE with that motherboard. Prerequisites for operation: First, the USB drive containing the startup disk created using the installer PE must be inserted into the computer’s USB port, after which the computer should be restarted. http://www.zhuangjiyuan.com/forum.php?mod=attachment&aid=Mjg4ODd8YWZkYWNhNTl8MTQ2NzQyMzcxOXwwfDEyMTQ4 Once we enter the “Quick Boot Menu” using the shortcut keys specific to the motherboard brand, we will see one of the following three common menu interfaces: http://www.zhuangjiyuan.com/forum.php?mod=attachment&aid=Mjg5ODV8OWEwYzZmOTZ8MTQ2NzQyMzcxOXwwfDEyMTQ4 Note: After selecting the desired menu item using the up (↑) and down (↓) arrow keys on the keyboard, simply press Enter to proceed. Step 3: After entering the Win8.1PE system provided by the installer, run the “One-Click Installation” tool to install the Ghost Win7 system! 1) When we use the shortcut key to select our USB drive and enter the main menu of Zhuangjiyuan, we use the up/down ↑↓ arrow keys to select “【02】 Run Zhuangjiyuan Win8.1PE”, then press the Enter key; this will take us into the Zhuangjiyuan Win8.1PE system, as shown in the following link: http://www.zhuangjiyuan.com/forum.php?mod=attachment&aid=Mjg5ODR8ZjgzNTg0YjV8MTQ2NzQyMzcxOXwwfDEyMTQ4 2) After selecting “【02】 Run Win8.1PE”, pressing Enter will bring us to the interface of the winPE system, as shown in the following link: http://www.zhuangjiyuan.com/forum.php?mod=attachment&aid=Mjg5ODZ8ZThmMTE3NDR8MTQ2NzQyMzcxOXwwfDEyMTQ4 3) Once inside the Zhuangjiyuan Win8.1PE system, by running the “One-Click Installation” tool, the software will automatically detect the GHO image file (i.e., the GHO file package that we downloaded and copied onto the USB drive), and it will automatically extract the files from within that GHO file. We just need to click the "OK (Y)" button! As shown in the following image: http://www.zhuangjiyuan.com/forum.php?mod=attachment&aid=Mjg5ODd8ZTZkNThjZGV8MTQ2NzQyMzcxOXwwfDEyMTQ4 4) After clicking the “OK” button, a small window will appear; we simply need to click the “Yes (Y)” button in that window, as shown in the following image: http://www.zhuangjiyuan.com/forum.php?mod=attachment&aid=Mjg5ODh8NjFlYjYyZDJ8MTQ2NzQyMzcxOXwwfDEyMTQ4 5) Next, a window will appear showing the progress of decompressing the GHO file; this window has a progress bar. At this point, we don’t need to do anything other than wait patiently for the process to complete, as shown in the following image: http://www.zhuangjiyuan.com/forum.php?mod=attachment&aid=Mjg5ODl8NmQ1NjNlOGR8MTQ2NzQyMzcxOXwwfDEyMTQ4 6) Once the progress bar indicating the decompression of the GHO file is complete, a window will appear asking whether to restart the computer. We just need to click the “Yes (Y)” button, and the computer will restart automatically. At that time, we should remove the USB drive from the USB port. Finally, the computer will install the operating system automatically, and once the desktop appears, it means that the Ghost Windows 7 system has been installed successfully, as shown in the following images: http://www.zhuangjiyuan.com/forum.php?mod=attachment&aid=Mjg4ODF8OWM2ODExN2F8MTQ2NzQyMzcxOXwwfDEyMTQ4 http://www.zhuangjiyuan.com/forum.php?mod=attachment&aid=Mjg4ODJ8YjAyODk1YWV8MTQ2NzQyMzcxOXwwfDEyMTQ4 http://www.zhuangjiyuan.com/forum.php?mod=attachment&aid=Mjg4ODN8NWYwNmYzMjR8MTQ2NzQyMzcxOXwwfDEyMTQ4
