If you are getting an error "Unable to copy files…" to the USB drive, here's a quick fix: First run “diskpart” from a command prompt with admin rights. Then... list disk select disk # (the number of your USB - make sure this is it!) clean (this will clear the Master Boot Record) create partition primary select partition 1 active format quick fs=fat32 assign exit Be http://www.techspot.com/community/topics/fix-windows-usb-dvd-download-tool-when-unable-to-copy-files.193386/ EXTRA careful about the disk you are selecting. Choose the wrong thing and you could potentially delete a working partition with all your data in it. This should get you going with the Windows 7 USB/DVD tool (WUDT). If for some reason it still won't work, you could try an alternative program which is recommended by many (I've personally only used it once) called Rufus. Like Microsoft's tool, Rufus is a small piece of software that let's you format and create bootable flash drives from ISO files. Rufus claims to be twice as fast as WUDT and other alternative utilities so it's definitely worth a shot for your next OS reinstall. Jun 18, 2013 #1 riker557 TS Rookie Very useful. thanks! Apr 24, 2014 #2 KAKHA13 TS Rookie Thanks, it's Working May 18, 2014 #3 IjemOfili TS Rookie Thanks for sharing this. RUFUS does work, however it is nowhere as fast as the WUDT for preparing a Windows 8 install usb media. Jun 18, 2014 #4 mrmuiz TS Rookie Thx it works fine !

Contents1 Error Details2 Causes of this error3 Fixes for this error3.1 Fix #1: Eject and re-insert the USB3.2 Fix #2: Manually create the boot partition Error Details If attempting to install Windows from a USB drive, external drive, thumbdrive, USB stick, etc instead of error unable using a CD or DVD, the following error can appear: Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition. See the setup log files for more information. Causes of this error This error is hardware-dependant and its appearance varies from PC to PC. It depends on your motherboard, your USB interface, the USB stick you are using, and the version error unable to of Windows you are installing. During setup, Windows must identify which drive is your primary boot drive in order to correctly configure the MBR and bootloader. This error does not normally apply to EFI and UEFI installations of Windows 7, Windows 8, or Windows 10. You can read everything there is to know about the MBR configuration and boot process here. Depending on how your PC is configured and which hardware you are using, Windows setup can sometimes be unable to tell which drive is an external USB drive and which drive is a local disk that Windows should be installed to. This especially happens when using larger USB drives to install Windows or if you have configured your BIOS to boot from the USB drive first always. Also, some USB sticks present themselves to Microsoft Windows as a regular drive instead of identifying as a bootable USB. If Windows setup cannot reliably determine which is the boot drive, this error will appear. Fixes for this error Fix #1: Eject and re-insert the USB The easiest solution for this error is to force Windows to re-arrange its ordering of the drives. When you
