Is there a way to install Vista on an old PC that has no DVD drives?
Hello.
I have an old Dell Dimension 8250 test PC that I would like to install Vista onto. However, it has no DVD drives. I cannot even boot from external USB drives (3.5" disk drive, external HDDs, and DVD burner drive -- CMOS doesn't see them and found out PC doesn't support bootable USB devices). However, I do have enough HDD space (30 GB free on second partition) to copy Vista DVD (or make an ISO file) onto it through network (will take a while). Thank you in advance.  -- "Ants can lift up to 50 times their own weight. And your monitor is missing.
