You will need to get the Windows 8 installation files onto some kind of media that you can boot from.
Fortunately, the ubiquitous and inexpensive flash drive, or any other USB based drive, is a perfect solution. While many computers don't have optical drives, they all have USB ports... thank goodness.
Once you have those installation files onto a flash drive, which is exactly what we'll show you how to do over the course of this tutorial, you can move on to the actual Windows 8 installation process, which we also have a complete tutorial of - but we'll get to that at the end.
Important: If you have an ISO image of Windows 8 and actually do have a DVD drive in the computer, you don't need this tutorial at all. Just burn the ISO to a disc and then install Windows 8.
This tutorial will apply for computers, laptops, desktops,and tablets running the Windows 10, Windows 8/8.1, Windows 7 operating systems.Works for all major computer manufactures (Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, Samsung).
