I have searched the net... spend 2 days trying dozens of options and nothing comes close to working 1) I have a ISO for Win7 Premium (32bit) 2) I have a legal and legit Win7 Key 3) I have an older MacPro (1,1) running Snowleopard that I want to use as a Win7 Test Bed The problem is the DVD (superdrive) doesn't work... and I don't want to spend any more money just to get Win7 installed. I have tried all the tricks to make a bootable USB flashdrive .... but it won't boot. I have made a DVD (which seems to work on my other macs, but sice the SuperDrive is broke that doesn't help me)... Win7 doesn't seem to be able to be booted from an external drive (except if the computer does not have one (ie. new iMacs and MBA)) If anyone has done this, can they post step-by-step instructions on what they did? (I even tried reFit to boot the USB... so I think maybe I did something wrong there). Most of the sites on the web are not too specific.... too much guessing involved. _________________ Dave Sisemore iMac I7[2012], OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.3 RB2012r2.1 Note : I am not interested in any solutions that involve custom Plug-ins of any kind Top Display posts from previous: All posts1 day7 days2 weeks1 month3 months6 months1 year Sort by AuthorPost timeSubject AscendingDescending Page 1 of 1 [ 1 post ] -- Over 1500 classes with 29000 functions in one REALbasic plug-in collection.
