(( Download Ultra ISO and Burn the files on the cd))

If that's not the case

Just download Unetbootin. Select your ISO then select the USB Flash drive you want it on and that should fix it.

Windows 7 Has a different installation system

Windows 7 ((When installed from windows)) installs the full thing without having to restart

As in windows XP you have to restart your pc and it starts a whole other App on start up wich will fail because the files are misisng ((UN-Reachable))

I'm a Certified Computer Engineer I know what i'm talking about :P
