Upon making an ISO file and using the Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to make it bootable, I have encountered something odd.
I have two ISO images: one is slightly smaller and only has iso9660 and UDF selected (lets call this File 1), and another file which is a tiny bit bigger and has iso9660, joliet and UDF (lets call this File 2)
In the Windows 7 USB/DVD tool, I am unable to use File 1 but I can use File 2.
However, it formats and copies the files up to 99% and then says it is unable to copy the files. This is where it gets weird...
Although I have selected File 2 and it tries to copy that, after it "fails" to copy the file, it seems that it has copied File 1 onto the USB (I know this as the file size is identical and it has the same name: windows8 a.k.a File 1 instead of: windows8(1) a.k.a File 2)
In short, Windows 8 has been copied onto a bootable USB, but not the file I selected.
Is this ok to try and boot in my new PC or is something wrong?
Thanks
