I tried to install windows 7 from usb flash drive, but I can't proceed with my installation because it says, "no device driver found" after I click install now. This is not my first time to install this way, yet I now encounter this problem. What should I do with this?

are you booting from an iso in a usb flash drive(using xboot or similar)? if yes, then don't boot from iso. first format the drive as ntfs.
then in an elevated command prompt, type: pushd (your usb drive letter, e.g.- E:) \boot and press enter. then type: bootsect.exe /nt60 (your usb drive letter, for e.g. E:)  and press enter. Now copy your setup files to the usb drive and boot into it. If still the same happens, you will have to copy your pc's drivers to the flash drive and select the drivers at the time of install. i think this may help.
