mritter Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 The latest and greatest method to install Windows from is a USB key. CD/DVDs are slow by comparison and limited in size.I have updated WPI 8.0.3 to detect if started from a USB drive. By default it will act like it was started from a dvd. The extra buttons (Options, Config, etc) are hidden since I assume you are installing Windows, not modifying your config file.I added a new option in 8.1.0, "Check this box to automatically hide the buttons if started from a USB drive." This is checked by default. Uncheck it for use when testing or making changes.You would definetly not want this checked if you have a USB key you carry around from computer to computer to just install software.Sorry, but you will have to wait a bit for 8.1.0 to come out. It won't be long. Moving along nicely with a new major feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazer Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Nice, also saw you pm, ill test soon .. I never use CD/DVD's anymore simply just to slow .But it means that we can still modify stuff without it beeing write protected by wpi when using using the usb correct?.
