Most people that are trying to find and download Windows install disks already have a license and just want a disk to do a clean install. However due to the manufacturers not including restore media or OS disks, or simply because one lost a disk, people have no easy way to re-install windows, which any geek or IT tech will tell you needs to be done regularly. I'd actually wager to say more people have started pirating Windows because of this situation. Someone can't find a disk so they start searching the internet to get one and thus become somewhat educated in installing illegal software, which I fully understand. I say it's Microsoft's own damn fault for fostering the need to find install disks. Well Miscrosoft finally fixed their Rectal-Cranial-Inversion by not only now allowing one to download and create Windows 8.1 install disks, buy they actually made the process really easy and within the reach of everyone. In this video, I walk you through the incredibly easy process of downloading and creating your Windows 8.1 installation media. You can create a bootable SD card, USB flash drive, or DVD. ~~Support the Channel~~ + Subscribe & Hit the Thumbs-Up Button (This Helps the Video Show up in Search Results) + Use My amazon and ebay links + Throw Some Bills in the Tip Jar.

1. sir , what about the driver package , and compatibility issue if any occurs ?
2. how do you go about reinstalling the drivers that you copied into the drivers folder? Aren't they just single driver files without installers?
3. Do you need to install the drivers or is it optional?
4. thank you cant wait to try it when i get home will let u know if it works
5. +Gadgetclass i have the same model cpu, when i update the drivers my computer gets a weird glitch where it shuts off during sleep and the power light stays on when shutting down or hibernating. i usually restore from factory setting from the original hard-drive and clone to my ssd to fix it but my security suites keep installing the drivers and cant pin point which driver update causes the issue. i was just hoping if youve had the same experience or know anything about it faulty drivers for the mode?l
6. Can you do a clean install of windows on an SDD?( using an ISO) Mine gives me error messages. When I try via DVD, It stops at expanding files during install and stops the installation process. giving an error. Missing file, or something. When I try via USB Pen drive, it says no boot manager. I made sure to change to boot device in Bios, I'm about to send this SDD Back to Amazon. And go with the tried and true standard Hard Drive. Oh, and I even have it set as AHCI.
7. @gadgetclass My Acer Laptop has a boot loop problem, it was updated from windows 8 to 10 few weeks ago. I followed your instructions and made the 8GB flash drive (with windows 8.1 64bit). I then tried resetting it through bios screen but it says it the media inserted is not valid. Does it mean that I should have made a flash drive with (windows 10) instead or is it suppose to be compatible? Thanks need to use my laptop urgently. Hope someone helps.
8. I put on the .ISO immediately into the SD Card and now it just recognizes says insert a CD, what do I do?
9. would this work to install windows onto a custom desktop?
10. I used the option with the usb but when I boot it, it still ask me about the product key. What to do????
11. i cant instal this app usb flash i need to instal framework 2.0 i have 4.6
12. Hi, I want to upgrade from a HDD to SSD.
    I know how to install windows from a bootable drive, but do I need to enter the product key?
    I have a genuine copy!
13. This video was really helpful. My laptop was showing no bootable device and the drive where windows was located was locked and I could not run the bootrec.exe mbr boot options.  The only issue was I could not boot from the Memory card slot write the SD drive.  I did create the DVD and it worked like a charm.  Once it installed windows 8 it then automatically upgraded me to Windows 10 for free.  Thanks again for putting this together.
14. if I clean install , will I loose my lisence from my previous windows come with the oem pc ?
15. hi, so the downloaded drivers are your operating system? and with windows you can pop in a new ssd/hd and install through bios to your PC ?
16. i have booted from USB download more than once. USB download is specific only to THE computer. ISO boots to any computer (with product-key)
17. if i stick a new ssd in my laptop and try and boot windows off the usb iso will i need to type a product key?
18. will a normal sd card work aswell?????
19. 8:00 You say "I'm going to Put All THE MANUFACTURES DRIVERS for THIS MODEL on the disk..VLC 7Zip"
    What the heck are you talking about??
    Which drivers for what model are you downloading?
    8:35 "I copied all my Manuafactures drivers into that folder"
    Manuafactures of what?? The computer? The Card? The Motherboard?
20. Mine won't work..Everytime I try to use The DVD burner to install onto my Card it stops on step 4
