HI guys,

I succesfuly installed windows 7 on a 16GB usb flash drive, but when I try to install it on my laptop everything goes fine untill it stucks at "setup is installing devices".
I left it more than 24 hours but it didn't move along, what could be the problem???

Hi,

I've just tried WinToUsb with my old harddrive via usb 2.0 connection, i've installed win 8.1 and surprised how fast it is with an old drive and a usb 2.0.

I'm now planning to buy Sandisk Extreme CZ80 and will install windows 10 64 bit, and run it from my laptops usb 3.0.

Does it have a trim support or is it reliable ? How long it should last, i will use it for web develpment and will not copy-erase large amounts of data, also will disable superfetch options to make the usb flash life better.

Has anybody used the flash drive for a year and had problem ?

Thanks.

Hello,

I have a MacBook Air and I'm using win to usb to run Windows 10 via a 64Gb USB stick.

I use it mainly for a few older games and it's running well however I have a couple of questions:

When I boot into Windows I've noticed the C drive is created from a VHD file contained on the USB stick. The file and the remaining space show as the D drive. Some things such as the DX9 files I need for older games install to the virtual C drive so space is very tight. Is it 
possible to resize the virtual drive? Does running software from the VHD incur any noticeable performance decrease over running directly from the stick?

Secondly I've tried to update Windows 10 however after downloading the updates Windows states it can not install to a virtual hard drive. How can I fix this?

Thanks

Hi,

I'm really hoping somebody can help me before I spend the money on a Certified Windows To Go USB Stick - The IronKey Workspace W300.

I need to be able to create a WindowsToGo stick on this drive, which is certified for WindowsToGo, however I want to use Windows 8/10 Home or Pro rather than Enterprise.

A requirement is that the OS drive can be encrypted using BitLocker.

I successfully got WindowsToGo to work with Windows 8.1 Pro on a non-certified USB Stick using the VHD/VHDX method, however you can't encrypt the OS Drive when it's a VHD/VHDX, it's just not possible. So unfortunately that is not an option.

I am wondering if it's possible to do this with a certified USB Stick? When I use WinToUSB on a regular flash drive it blanks out the Legacy option and forces me to use a VHD option.

Any help will be greatly appreciated...

P.S I am using the free version of WinToUSB at the moment. Looking to buy the flash drive very soon but don't want to blow £100 if it's not going to work as needed.

problem solved.

EasyUEFI V2.4 installed under Windows 8.1 on an ASUS M11AD with Secure Boot disabled.

Shortly after selecting "Create Bootable Disk" from the Tools Menu, "Build WinPE Image" aborts with the following Error Message:

     Specified partition not found.(0x0006003601C30000)

Disk1: Windows 8.1 [C: & D:]
Disk2: CentOS 7
Disk3: Currently an Empty NTFS Drive [E:] on an eSATA Drive

Although I already have a EasyUEFI 1.9 Boot Disk, I wanted to create a "Newer" EasyUEFI 2.4 Boot Disk!

HI

I am new here and to uefi.  I currently have a bios mbr based HD with windows 10 and an asus x99 motherboard. I am exploring ways of converting to efi/gpt.  I know that using my backup software Acronis, I can restore my HD to GPT format but that makes it unbootable.  I have created bootable USB sticks with efi bios but cannot boot into my win10 drive.  Is that something EasyUEFI can do?  Please forgive my ignorance if this is a trivial question but I would appreciate some assistance here.  I know that I can reinstall win10 from scratch in uefi mode but would like to avoid that if possible.

Thanks in advance.

I'm getting this error when attempting to write to an SSD connected via USB. Same error no matter which iso file or install disk I use as a source (tried several different versions of Win7 and Win10). Previously, I had no problem installing to USB sticks and HDs, this is the first time I've tried an SSD, however I assumed it should work exactly the same. At first I thought there was a problem with the iso I was trying to use, but I've verified it does this with any image.

I'm running on Win7. Just mounted the SSD and formatted it NTFS via the management console. What does this error really mean? Is there some special handling required for SSDs?

Would you like the translation to Brazilian Portuguese?

I do it and free.
