Windows AIO USB or DVD

August 4th, 2016

Hello guys. I’m just wondering how can i make an AIO installer bootable to put windows xp (some editions), windows 7 (some editions) and the windows 8.1 all in one single AIO and not separately, so i can make my life easy everytime i want to install windows on my laptop. A tutorial will be nice..
Thanks in advance.

Answer #1
Put simply you cant, They use entirely different bootloaders and xp isn’t image based.
The only supported way to do this is to setup a network based installation server on another PC
Or to dump XP load the 8.1 iso in poweriso and add the install.wim from 7 to the 8.1 iso by renaming it to 7.wim
Then when the 8.1 setup boots press shift + f10
and using the applywim commands

Quite involved id go with Windows Deployment Services

I stumbled upon the following link:
http://flyakite.msfn.org/
It seems pretty complete. It does not say anything about Vista/7/8, but it does tell you how to add Longhorn. Longhorn is a early version of Vista. And since Vista/7/8 use the same boot method, as far as I know, I don’t see why it wouldn’t work for Vista/7/8.

You can. I have window 7 and window 8.1 on my usb.
Use pendrive. When you use it. Pick window 8 first then window xp (point it to window 7 iso).
