Hey,
I've recently bought a new laptop, a Samsung NP370R5E-A02UK.
The laptop is used and has Windows 8 installed on it, but I want to do a fresh clean install and wipe the hard drive so that I can start from scratch.
However, the laptop has no CD drive. I have a genuine copy of Windows 8 that I bought and downloaded from Microsoft online when it first came out. It is an ISO file.
Is there any way to put this ISO onto a memory stick and then make the laptop boot from the memory stick so that I can install it? If so, how do I go about doing this?
Thanks in advance
