    Hey guys I was wondering if anyone knew how to make a bootable usb drive to install windows 7 through bootcamp on my mac. I don't have any dvd's laying around so I wanted to see how I can make an image file for Windows 7 and boot it as a disc from my usb thumb drive?

    USB boot of "legacy" OSes is extremely unreliable on Macs, however there are a few workarounds described in this thread. http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=601414
