So, I bought all the parts for my new PC. Shelled out almost 2900 dollars for it. I needed an OS, so I bought Windows 8.1. I, however, did not buy a Disc Drive, as I was already about 100 dollars over budget, and couldn't get it in.
I was told I could install windows 8.1 through USB, but, apparently, to do that... I need a access to a disc drive, so I can create an ISO of the disc. However, my Macbook Pro doesn't have a disc drive... so that's not at all helpful, as you can imagine.
When I asked around other places, no one really gave me an answer that would work for me. Mainly, they kept saying borrow a computer from someone... but I'm new to the city I live in, and don't really know anyone yet, except a couple of school mates, who happen to only have the same Macbook I have, which doesn't have a Disc Drive.
What I'm trying to figure out is what I can do. It would suck if I paid all that money for a computer I won't be able to use. Could any of you help me at all?
Thanks in Advance
