If you download your Windows 7 copy using Microsoft Store or your MSDN/TechNet/Connect account, it comes in ISO file format which needs to burn to a DVD.
What to do if you don't have a DVD drive? You can create a bootable USB drive to install Windows 7.
Microsoft has released a new utility "Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool" which allows you to create a bootable USB drive to install Windows 7. It also allows you to create bootable DVD.
You can download it using following link: Download Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool
After downloading and installing the tool, when you launch it, it'll ask you to select the path where you have stored Windows 7 ISO file:
Provide the ISO file path and click on "Next" button. Now it'll ask you whether you want to create bootable USB drive or DVD:
Click on the desired button. If you select "USB Device", it'll ask you to insert the USB device. If your USB device is compatible, it'll be automatically detected by the tool:
Click on "Begin Copying" button. Now you'll be prompted to format the USB device. Accept the confirmation:
That's it. The tool will start copying the installation files to USB device:
At last, it'll show a message that "Bootable USB device created successfully".
System Requirements:
- Windows XP SP2, Windows Vista, or Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit)
- Pentium 233-megahertz (MHz) processor or faster (300 MHz is recommended)
- 50MB of free space on your hard drive
