Once it boots from pendrive follow the procedure to install Windows. Press the power button and immediately keep pressing ESC until the startup menu appears and then press F9 and choose the pendrive in the boot menu. If not, turn off the PC by holding the power button. So, insert the pendrive in the PC and it should boot directly from the drive. You might need to disable fastboot and secure boot in BIOS (probably not). If you choose this option you will need to use the pendrive to perform a clean install of Windows 10.
Windows will automatically activate once installed and connected to the Internet. Create the drive with Windows 10 Home 64-bit edition. (there is an explanation on the Microsoft web page on how to create the pendrive). Finally, I would really love to be able to do this all cost-free, as I have already purchased the Lion, and dont feel like buying a disc for it again.On page 41 of service manual you can see the steps to replace the driveĭownload media creation tool from Microsoft on PC (before replacing drive), run and create a bootable pendrive with the OS on it. And no, I don't have access to ANY Macs to format the SSD. IMPORTANT: No, I don't have ANY install discs, the only one I had, for Snow Leopard, is gone. If there is some way to format an SSD so that it will work with a MacBook Pro, that would be great.on a PC I have no idea how to format my SSD, let alone without a Mac. I bought Lion, and I'm hoping that there is a way to download this and put it on a USB, then boot my computer from it.
So, I was wondering if there was any possible way to make a bootable USB or disk without having acsess to a Mac, or having to buy a disc. No idea where it went, I just don't have it. Now, most people can just put in their install disk and voila! But, I, sadly, do not have my install disk. Luckily, I had started backup up a month ago, and all my data is safe on my external hard drive, but this is only a time machine backup. After I got over the initial shock, I googled "hard drive replacement" after searching for a while, I noticed most sites just showed how to UPGRADE your hard drive, cloning it and all. It has worked minutes ago, then my brother gets off, I open it up,and the hard drive has failed.
Tried rebooting, grey screen, strange clicking noise like most people with hard drive failure. I instantly knew there was something wrong with my hard drive. The Sykpe signin page said "Disc I/O error" or something like that. It looked fine, untill I took a second look and I heard a strange clicking noise coming from my computer. Hello, just yesterday I opened up my MBP 13" Mid-2010 running 10.7.(4/5) (Not sure which it is, but I think it is 10.7.5) and the first thing I saw was Skype tring to sign in. I need a way to install Lion on a new SSD without an install disc, and how to format it without a Mac.
