I have an ISO image of Windows 7 64 bit off TechNet, I was told you can use UltraISO to burn the ISO image to a USB flash drive and then boot off it and install.I just want to know what settings to use? I open the image file in UltraISO, then go to the "Bootable" drop down menu and choose "Write Disk Image" and then it brings me to the menu where I choose my USB drive.
I choose "USB-HDD+" for write method, but what about the "Xpress Boot" option? I googled it and I guess it keeps the original disc format intact or something like that, should I use the "Xpress Write" option then?
Also, what is the difference between USB-HDD+ and USB-HDD?
Thanks to anyone for awsering my questions!

Suggestion: Just open ISO image of Windows 7, using all default settings and click 'Write' to get a bootable USB disk.USB-HDD+ : enhanced USB-HDD mode, works with most PC BIOS's
USB-HDD: standard USB-HDD mode
XpressBoot: Choose 'Xpress Write' from popup menu, which will keep data on your USB stick
'Write': will format your USB stick before writing

Incredible to me that these settings and options are never gone over in the help file.
