I don't know why and how do you get error. I have done it several times and never failed even once. IF you want a ready made solution, I recommend win2flash. If normal menthod, then I can explain.
Also for some unknown reasons that official USB tool you used didn't detect ISO in my case, so I never prefer that.

Best is DOS method.

you can use pxe boot(aka booting over lan)but i seriously doubt you can make it work if you are facing problems even with microsoft usb dvd tool.also confirm that your iso file is not corrupted by matching its SHA1 value with official microsoft SHA1 values for various win 7 versions.

how to check it weather it is corrupted or not.
But i have cleared all the 4 steps in microsoft usb dvd tool
.so maybe it is not corrupted

I have installed windows7 on my desktop in virtual box using that iso and it installed perfectly.Therefore my iso is perfectly fine.

Error that i was getting when booting from usb:*www.mediafire.com/conv/a93f9ee6bf7128db75fa9006fc59995f7b1883a6ce30625513c3b7dd9a1f61eb6g.jpg

^^How could i know how old your pd is until you wont mention it.
Anyways try booting using other usb drive if you can to make sure.

Have you tried cmd method of making bootable windows 7 usb drive.
Maybe that would solve the problem.

Method 1:

Why don't you try to install win7 from network.

Share your pc with laptop over network and then install the OS.

Another method is as follows:

Method 2:
You simply extract the contains of win7 ISO to your USB pen drive. ( you can use WinZip to do it )
then,

Plug in this USB pen drive in your laptop.
then,

Start DOS and copy the contains of USB pen drive to your laptop harddisk.
then,

Start the installation of win7 from laptop harddisk.

Method 3:

Use an External USB harddisk to do the same as in method 2 above.

I just now i tried on my external hdd manually but got error when booting .
Q1)Please kindly check the method 1 and 2.Can i do this? If yes then how?
Q2)I have installed windows7 from my iso earlier on my pre-installed xp.I just mount it and ran like any other software,and it ran in GUI,and dual booted it.Can i do the same in my dos laptop by just copying it to hdd and run it?

after spending 5 min on google searching this error almost all the replies suggested problem at hardware level:hard disk failing,bios corrupted etc.get a linux bootable pendrive image or hiren's boot cd hard disk diagnostic tool(preferred) & check your hard disk health.

Brother., try once Universal-USB-Installer i'm sure it'll work for you., the problem with other USB Boot tools is that they boot through linux bootloader., and it doesn't work for windows 7 installation and "Windows 7 USB DVD Download Tool" works with original (Genuine) win 7 ISO image only. ;-)
