Recently, I want to create a boot-able USB to re-install windows 7. And after creating boot-able USB with Windows7-USB-DVD-Download-Tool and windows7.iso, I can't boot from my usb. However, If I try to create with my friend's USB, I can boot from it (tried it many times)! So can anyone explain what 's happen to my USB? How to solve it? One more problem, when I stick my USB to my laptop, there's always a file named "usb label name".exe in my usb (if I try to remove it or even format it, it will be automatically created later)? Can anyone give me a way to remove it? Thanks in advance for any help you are able to provide!

Check if any other OS is able to boot from the usb disk (for e.g linux) – Karthik T Nov 22 '12 at 8:24
