I really want to use Ubuntu (more about Ubuntu). Although I already have the Ubuntu installation disc which I got it for free, but I can’t install it yet because my computer does not has enough spaces and I need to repartition my hard disc. Which means, I need to format my hard disc and create a new partition to install Ubuntu.

Instead from installing Windows Vista from the DVD, you also can install it from USB 2.0 flash drive. It is the easiest and the fastest way to install your Windows Vista. But the problem is, you need a 4Gb of USB flash drive because you need to copy all the content from the installation DVD into the flash drive.

  1. First thing first, format the USB flash drive to FAT32 file system
  2. Copy the DVD content to formatted USB flash drive
  3. Set your BIOS settings to boot up from USB
  4. Install Windows Vista
