How to install windows XP and 7 without cd drive

Karanja irungu magutas blog

Many people already know this, but for those who don't- suppose your CD drive is not working for whatever reason and you need to install windows 7 or XP ?

The program is called wintoflash and can be found here http://wintoflash.com/ simply follow the instructions. this also means you have to have another machine with a working cd drive.

Even when he had said nothing funny or amusing to anybody he would laugh loudly and start another story about his antics when he was drunk. “I remember one time back home , we had taken two full cups of sham each, then added a few bottles of tusker, man i was walking from one side of the road to another…… singing circumcision songs vigorously” he would say “ You should cut down on sham mister “ i tried to venture “ you know that is the night i swam in bad water by the roadside” he went on Shardrack never ceased to to talk about his crazy drinking escapades, he really liked his brew  than any thing else and his talks were usually sprinkled with politics. he could make good enough analysis of what was happening in the country although not good enough for someone with a degree in agriculture. may be what he did best was to teach mathematics to hi...
