Learning has never been so easy!
You may think installing Windows 7 would be easy. Short and sweet, it's almost hell unless you have a hell of a lot of time, love nearly impossible puzzles and loads of spare disks. Some of you may even say 'You did it wrong if you had problems'. Well guys I have spent about 15 hours working and wasted about 5 DVDs, so I thought I'd write this How-To to help those that well, would like to do it the first time.
8 Steps total
Step 1: Download the Windows Automated Installation Kit
Here!

Not sure if you need to go through Genuine Windows Validation, I didn't, but I don't know if that's because I've downloaded it before.

Not sure if you need to go through Genuine Windows Validation, I didn't, but I don't know if that's because I've downloaded it before.
Step 2: Download ImgBurn
The Windows 7 ISO Recorder is nice feature, but we need ImgBurn to do some special features.
So, grab ImgBurn from here:
http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download
So, grab ImgBurn from here:
http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download
Language dependent, of course!
Step 3: Download Alcohol 52%
I used Daemon Tools, but that isn't free for Commercial use, so I suggest Alcohol 52% as a 15-Day Trial, as once we've made the final ISO that's it, job done!
Grab it from here :
http://trial.alcohol-soft.com/en/downloadtrial.php
http://trial.alcohol-soft.com/en/downloadtrial.php
I'd say use the Windows XP Virtual CD Control Panel, but I couldn't get it working.
Step 4: Copy Windows 7 to a folder
Simple enough, if you downloaded an ISO, mount it using Alcohol 52%, or if it's a disk, whack it in and copy it to a folder. For this How-To, we'll use C:Win7Original-ISO.
Step 5: Time to Multi-task, Update Mac OS X
You need to install the latest updates for your Mac Computer, so that when you start the BootCamp assistant (Applications > Utilities > BootCamp Assistant), it mentions Windows 7.
So yeah, update the Mac while Windows 7 is copied to a folder :)
Step 6: Continue Multi-tasking, Use BootCamp!
Dive into the belly of the best! Start the BootCamp assistant, and press next, next again, and size the Windows partition. You have two options down the bottom; Reset to Default or Use 32GB. You can also set the size by dragging the circle between the 2 blocks just above the options. I know you probably know this but it took me a while to figure out! :D
Step 7: Use WAIK; specifically oscdimg.exe
Firstly, in the folder which you extracted Windows 7 into, go into the 'boot' folder and delete 'bootfix.bin'. In fact, just find bootfix.bin in C:Win7Original too and delete it. Should fix the problem of 'Press any key to start'. Now, go to Start > Programs > Microsoft Windows AIK > Deployment Tools Command Prompt.
Ah a CLI! Have no fear, the command is relatively easy!
Now we are going to use the CD Mastering tool, OSCDimg.exe
Type in the following command, and remember to change it where appropriate.
oscdimg.exe -bC:Win7Original-ISObootetfsboot.com -u2 -h -m -l C:Win7Original-ISO C:Win7ISO-stage2.iso
The above command tells the mastering tool to use the etfsboot.com as the boot sector, build the ISO using only UDF as the file system, include hidden files, ignore the maximum size limit, use the label , include the files in C:Win7Original-ISO and create the new ISO at C:Win7 with the name ISO-Stage2.iso

Woop, second stage ISO done!
Step 8: Burn baby burn!

Burn that disk baby!
As far as I know it should just work like a charm!
So. You've just made a disk that should install so easily it's unreal. Took some time but do you feel proud? You should do!
I'll follow up some time with pictures.
Thanks for reading!

- SerranoJake.Hendy Dec 14, 2010 at 01:15pm@DerekNapoli.I can see your point, but then you have to buy licensing for VM or Parallels where as one seat for Windows would be much cheaper. Not to mention the advantages Mac's have of wiring, display space, etc. There are hundreds of factors. I use both Windows and Mac OS X and the usage of each depends on my mood (generally PS on the Mac however). I merely posted this to help somebody else.
- CayenneeDimensional Jan 20, 2011 at 01:44pmI haven't tried this myself, but from your instructions, I don't really see why you have to remaster the Windows 7 CD. You aren't adding any new drivers into the installation. Is the only fix removing the 'Press any key to boot from CD' message? Does the Mac choke on that?
