Read the original post announced by jun: Ģ. I hope what i wrote above makes sense, if not i can show you the process later today using my laptop (linux).1. This way you will have a flash drive with a bootable Win7 that you can use on your laptop directly. If you already have a virtual drive that has you windows 7 in it, then just create a new virtual machine, choose Win7 and in the stage where you choose your virtual drive size choose to use an existing one.Īnother option i would try (but only if you have a fast flash drive) is to make a new virtual machine without any drive, mount that flash drive in it and install windows 7 on it. Yes you can my friend, but first i would advise to connect the USB flash drive you want to use then go to windows storage manager and assign it an alphabet from the end of the list like (Z: or Y:) so you guarantee that Windows will always assign that alphabet to that flash drive and not the fist available one (D, E.).įollow the process of creating a new virtual machine, choose Win7 and when you reach the stage where you need to choose your new storage size, make sure to create a new virtual drive inside your flash drive (make sure it is located inside your flash drive), then finish the rest of the process normally.
