    2. Insert a USB drive into a Windows 7 machine and open a command prompt
    3. From the command prompt type DISKPART and press enter
    4. From the diskpart> menu type LIST DISK and and press enter
    5. At this point you should see the USB stick listed. In the example below ours is ‘‘‘‘Disk 1’’’’ (your may be different, so look at the disk size)

    C:\>

    7.    Close the DOS window

    8.    Using WinRAR (from rarsoft.com), extract the contents of the SGN WinPE ISO into the root of the USB stick.
