Teach you to create a Windows 8 bootable USB flash drive

Motivation

To the company, a colleague and I just happened to say that he did. Windows 8 Startup Disk is not good, I remember the first paragraph I also used a 64gb3.0 USB, and then did a ImageX, but it seems that the starting state belongs to the section reputation of the six-vein God sword, Shiling when not spirit, So here's a little bit of research, a little bit of sharing, I hope to be interested in doing a flash drive to help you.

Business

Sometimes we might think of a tricky way to make a Windows 8 system with a USB flash drive, which is a quick and easy way to start a U disk, for convenience or for a temporary environment demo or to temporarily borrow other people's computers without destroying their existing environment. Windows to go.

Special Instructions

This is not a simple way to install the system to a USB drive, so it's not as simple as using the ImageX method of using image writing, which is why so many friends who try this approach have my colleagues and I have been so confused.

If you are interested in TechNet there is a very detailed description of http://technet.microsoft.com/library/hh831833.aspx:

Here's a quick summary:

· By default, hibernation and sleep are disabled. This is done to prevent accidental data corruption as a result of roaming and can be re-enabled through Group Policy.

· The internal disk of the system is offline. To prevent data leaks, the built-in hard drive that initiates the system host will be taken offline by default on the Windows to go boot system. Similarly, if you insert a USB drive on Windows to go in a boot system, the default is not loaded by the system resource browser.

· Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is not available. BitLocker driver Encryption is used for the encryption and password protection of the operating system pre-boot, but the TPM is bound to a host, so this portable mobile drive is clearly not suitable for use on different hosts.

· Windows restore function is invalid. If you need to restore the windows to go drive, you can only refresh the Windows image again.

· The reset button is not available. The reset to the computer manufacturer's standard does not run Windows to go when it is really applied, so this feature is disabled.

· Windows to go u disk can be started on multiple computers.

On the first boot, computer Windows detects all the hardware on the computer and installs the drivers. When you return to the computer, Windows to go will automatically recognize the computer and load the correct driver. This allows you to have the ability to roam on multiple computers using the same drive as Windows to go. Of course, the instrumentation creates a hardware profile for the detected physical hardware environment during the boot process, so that you can save startup time if you can apply this configuration file at the same physical hardware startup and do not have to complete detection.
· Prevent accidental pull out of the U disk recovery ability.

When a USB device is suddenly unplugged from the system, the operating system stops for 60 seconds to wait for the USB device to detect recovery.

Prerequisite conditions

For the production of Windows to go USB device for the current view is still relatively strict, so at present, if you can take a U disk to create a successful probability is not high.

· Must be a high-performance device. The USB device must be a hardware certification kit for Windows 8 and a USB 3.0 SSD drive, with high random read/write speeds, low latency, and other conditions such as support for thousands of random read and write requests per second.

· Must be recognized by the system as a mass storage device. (Cable level storage) must not be a removable disk, the one you use for me is not OK! As a result, incompatibilities are displayed when you use the Windows to go tool.

The official supported hardware currently has:

1. Kingston kw-u4132-1fa–bootable DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0

I think the domestic use of Kingston is more, if interested, this is the U disk link http://legacy.kingston.com/wtg/, currently has 32G and 64G two.
