Using win2flash is the easiest method i found to install windows from pen drive or any other USB.
First you have to download the file "wintoflash.exe" form link "Download" it is free of cost, once you downloaded the software open the zip file and extract the win2flash row file and the open it, and follow the instructions.
The main window is very simple to use. As you can see in Figure A, you simply need to click the Windows Setup Transfer Wizard to begin.
The next screen is the Basic Parameters tab (Figure C), which is all you will need to configure for your installation.
Also, on the Process Steps tab, you can select what steps you want to take place. From that tab you can select:
Once you have all your options configured, click the Create button on the Basic Parameters tab. When you click this button, you will have to accept the licensing terms and click Continue. The next window will warn you that all data will be lost. Go ahead and click OK and the process will begin.
The creation of the USB installation drive doesn’t take too long (should take approximately 15-30 minutes — depending on the speed of your machine). When the process is finished, you will get an OK window, which you can dismiss.
When the process is complete, you can look at the contents of the USB drive (Figure D) to see that all the usual Windows install suspects are present and accounted for. Now all you have to do is insert the drive and boot the machine from USB to install Windows 7.
