Make Bootable USB in Windows 7 or Windows Vista


Now as the computer technology is commonly relying on the USB technology, therefore having a bootable USB is also going to become a necessary item in order to install an operating system (like windows) on your computer especially on Laptops or Netbooks. Even in Netbook,bootable USB is considered as an essential option to have.

Bootable USB is also considered an easiest and faster way to install a Windows operating system on any laptop, personal computer or on any Netbook instead of using normal or I must say conventional DVDs for the purpose and it can also be prepared or created with the following very simple steps using Microsoft Windows 7 or Windows Vista:

  • First of all, a USB stick should be plug with your computer and 4GB+ USB is preferable to make bootable universal serial bus
  • If there is any important or useful data stored on your USB then must clear it or save it on other place as your USB would be formatted in this process
  • Now you need to go to DOS mode and should be clicked on Command Prompt for the purpose located at the Accessories Menu in the All Programs tab and can also be accessed through typing CMD in the search field of Start Menu
  • Now type DISKPART in Command Prompt and enter
  • Then LIST DISK should be typed and enter again

Below mentioned commands that are simple and need not to explain in detail if you have some computer background, must be typed and enter exactly in the sequence provided below if the intention is to create or prepare abootable USB:

  • First of all type “SEELCT DISK 1” and hit enter
  • Then “CLEAN” should be typed and press enter
  • Then “CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY” should be typed and press enter
  • Then “ACTIVE” should be typed and press enter
  • Then “FORMAT FS=NTFS” should be typed and press enter
  • Then “ASSIGN” should be typed and press enter
  • Then “EXIT” should be typed and press enter
That’s it, you did it eventually and bootable USB is now in your hand to use as per demand.

Asyncronous Communication

Asynchronous &is any data transmission that does not link the two devices with a common data clock. A Signal called a start bit is sent at the beginning of each segment, & a signal called a stop bit is sent at the end, these let the receiving device note the baundries(beginning & end) of a transmission packet. Early PC modems were almost Asynchronous devices operating at speeds of no more than 18,000 bps.

Diference between laptop & desktop computer

Most laptop processors are soldered directly in the motherboard, which means they cannot be removed. If there is some error in laptop processor, the entire motherboard needs to be replaced. Laptops processors can be slowed down when they are not running to their full capacity. The processor uses a technique called processor trotling that allows the operating system to put the processor in active sleep mode or shutdown mode. Laptop processors run at reduced clock rate than desktop processors. This helps them to produce less heat when running at full capacity. Laptop processors consume less power which though make them a slow performer but it greatly helps them to save battery life.
