How To Install Windows 8 From a USB Device

Just wanted to share this link. The main thing is the tool used to create the bootable thumb drive.

About.com: http://images2.store.microsoft.com/prod/clustera/framework/w7udt/1.0/en-us/Windows7-USB-DVD-tool.exe

What I did is insert a thumb drive (I use a 16GB one). The tool will format the drive and write the ISO image to the thumb drive. After that, just set BIOS to boot from thumb drive and you can install windows.

Getting lazy to burn DVD these days and Nero etc is not FOC one... hence might as well use thumb drive.
