Windows on USB?

Go to solution Solved by lani100,

This might seem a little bit noobish but how do i get hold of windows 8.1 on a usb?

 

Do i buy a retail disk and then move the content on it over to a usb?

Do you get your OS on a usb when you buy retail?

 

How does it work?

you can create an iso of the disc and copy that to a usb.

or download the iso and get hold of a 8.1 key.
