Hi Folks,
I just have a few minor questions regarding installing Windows OS using a usb drive. This is my first time doing it and when I checked some forums yesterday, some of the info confuses me:
1. What should be the format of my USB? fat32 or ntfs? I checked several tutorials and some says it should be fat32, others said it should be ntfs. What's the difference between the two? (I followed the fat32 format yesterday)
2. I got a copy of windows 10 ISO from a friend. After formatting my USB I copied the file in it and restarted my computer. I changed my boot priority in the BIOS but I think my PC skipped in booting my USB. I even tried to force start my USB in the BIOS and after a few seconds, it boots my OS again. I just copied the whole ISO file in the USB. Do I need to extract the contents of the ISO file and copy it in the USB?
Also, is there any important keypoints that I should take note or remember?
Thanks in advance
