Windows 7 + 8 on same USB?

Postby craxxy » October 11th, 2012, 8:12 pm

Hi, I know that windows vista and windows 7 have trouble booting if they are on the same usb drive, is it possible to have windows 7 and 8 on the drive, so they can both boot up properly? Please advice, thanks! :roll:

Hello David, when I try to put Windows 7 AiO and Windows 8 64-bit in multiboot and try to create ISO on HDD your program exctract just Win 7 ISO, it doesn't touch Win 8 ISO, also size ob both should be 6.85GB, but created ISO is just 3.42GB size.
I rename both ISO files as instructed (InstallWin7.iso and InstallWin8.ISO), what else can I do ?

Regards

Hello,

Is it possible to have

1) Windows 8 Pro x64
2) Windows 8 Pro x32
3) Windows 8 Enterprise x64

in a single USB Drive?

Should I place the second and third iso into the extra folder? The question is what parameter to add if I placed them in the extra folder?

Thank you for your advice.

it does not work bro windows 7 + 8 does not work with this app. I spend hours to make it work win 7 + 8 but nothing, it will work if you add win8 to extra iso and win7 at windows tab then it will work but win xp didnt worked then, on NTFS formated usb. dont know what to say in first watch it looks promesing and simple but when you try there is nothing to say. the other thing is there is no support&tutorials for windows installs they just say tick win7 win xp and win 8 and make usb bootable and when you try nothing works how is this support? another thing that i noticed the admin only say format FAT32 usb to work then why you add the option of NTFS? in the program you can notice Windows 7 AIO and Windows 8 AIO and FAT32 support only less than 4gb if you write AIO that means that its more than 4gb dude and still you say use FAT32 damn what a support, at least make a ticked thread with a tutorial. sourius man dont make those mistakes make this program work or there is no purpuse to use it if all those options dont work.

hope this critizm will help devs to make this app work more better in future.

Escuse me but if you use NTFS...I wrote hundred times that only works with fat32
barrosu can't write in NTFS. Do you know any free driver for read/write in DOS?

Make one test: add all windows in one USB FAT32 and let me know

:cheers:
