^^ can you please make the text the good ol' black.
It's just that I am a little colour blind. That's right. I can't see the colour orange in the above text.
Can you please?

Last time I used ultraISO on 2006 - made a win 98 SE and Xp SP2 - 2 in 1 bootable CD

The nain purpose of reformatting USB drive to make its drive as a active one so bios can use it as a harddrive for booting. After making a active drive mount you DVD or insert your win7 or vista DVD into your DVD drive copy all the content inside using mouse or control+a and then just paste it directly into the root of usb drive(no need for cmd for copying installation data from source), done.-)

Ok, done. Hope it helps you.
BTW how did you know, its Orange?

The other alternative to read the coloured text is, just copy the text, paste it in 'Notepad'. Now you can read the text as the whole text will be in black colour.

^^ LOL man! I am not color blind! But that orange was not at all eye pleasing!
So thanks for changing that!
