    If you have an ISO of windows these are the steps to install it:
    1) Download the program.
    2) Run the program in administrator mod.
    3) Agree to the TOS.
    4) Select your flashdrive.
    5) Scroll to the bottom and select the third option up. (Windows Vista/7/8 Installer)
    6) Click Create and watch it go.

    Now restart or start the computer you are trying to use.
    Then select windows loader and follow the directions.

    There we go! I hope that helps those that can't get their hands on demon tools or magic iso/power iso.
    There should be a windows installer without a flash drive also, I have ubuntu and windows 7 on this computer at the same time also.

    Ubuntu systems has a .exe that installs the OS using the windows boot loader, @(you need an account to see links). Arch does not though. I don't know enough dos coding to edit the boot loader of windows. I do however know enough grub code to do it. I'm trying to figure out now how to have a moveable OS that is completely unpacked. Grub 2 should be able to do it, but i'm not to sure how.
