Installing Windows, missing drivers

[TomvanWijnen]

Hello.

 

First of all I'd like to say that I just joined this forum, so if I make any mistakes please correct me.   Also please note that English isn't my first languange.

 

Last weekend I built my first pc (specs listed below). Now I'm trying to install Windows 7 onto it using an USB drive, but I get this error.

 

 

I've searched around the internet already, tried lots of things (like swapping usb port), but I can't get it to work...

 

Can someone help me please?

I did everything like the video, except for the formatting because my USB drive already had fat32.

No thanks. .

You loose

[beasty_brad]

you have to format the USB as a fat drive first and that will work similar as you do with a raspberry pi and you can do this with anything to install such as sd and usbs. u will need a bit of software to format it though hang on i will find a link 

[beasty_brad]

this should work fine:  http://www.neowin.net/news/usb-disk-storage-format-tool-50

or you can format any drive to fat with the command prompt
