    Is it possible to install windows on my new laptop FROM two SEPERATE USB drives?


    I currently have two usb drives, but only have 4gb of space on them, but need 8gb in order to install windows on my new laptop. So is it possible for me to split the installation? Regards Lukas

    Installing windows off of a USB stick

    Step By Step from vista:
    From admin cmd prompt

    1. diskpart
    1a. list disk
    2. select disk 1 (replace 1 with your usb drive)
    3. clean
    4. create partition primary
    5. select partition 1 (replace 1 with your usb drive)
    6. active
    7. format fs=fat32
    8. assign
    9. exit

    Copy Windows Vista's DVD ROM content to the Flash Drive

    xcopy d:\*.* /s/e/f e:\ (d being your vista cd and e being your usb stick)

    And that's it, boot off your usb disk

    Installing windows from usb hard drive

    I know you can do that, but what about having different windows installers on each partition? I think that's what the OP needs.
