So friends lets start :

Note : In this tutorial I'm  gonna use Rufus software which is an awesome utility to create a bootable usb.
         You can also use Windows 7 USB/DVD tool.But Rufus is a bit faster. Anyways you have freedom to make your choice.

STEP 1 :     
                   SO first things first, keep a usb flash drive handy. If ur installing Windows XP 1GB drive is enough. But for newer version you may need a 4GB drive.

Download Rufus utility from here.

STEP 2 :
                    After installing your software will look something like this :


Go to device section and select the device from the drop-down list.Next go to volume label section and type a name for your drive otherwise leave it blank :) All other settings are pre-defined and you dont have to change anything.

STEP 3 :
                Click on the CD drive button on the right side of FreeDos drop down list and browse to the windows installation iso.Wait till it scans the iso files.

STEP 4 :
                  Press start button.You will be given a message saying all the contents of the drive will be  deleted  ie,formatted. Make sure you have selected the right drive and press OK.

STEP 5 :
                Sit back and relax , while Rufus does the job !!!
