How to install Windows 7 hard drive

Not all computers are equipped with DVD Rom, which makes it difficult to install Windows 7 on the computer. Windows 7 cannot be installed on the optical drive, or you can use a USB flash drive to install Windows 7. However, USB flash drives are not supported by all computers. You can only use the hard disk installation method. Before that, XP and Vista can directly use the virtual optical drive to mount the system image for installation. However, win7 does not support this method. Hard Disk installation is a little troublesome. Today, fworld helped a friend install win7 in his notebook (with a drive problem). After trying, it was not too troublesome to install the hard disk. If you do not have a DVD drive on your computer, try win7 again!
