Adding ei.cfg
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste this in:

1 [Channel]
2 Retail

3. Save the file as ei.cfg in the Sources folder (should already exist) on your USB drive.
4. Shut down your computer

Precautions
It is recommended that you unplug any hard disks other than the one you plan to install Windows onto.

Booting the device

This is where I can't help you much. Your BIOS likely says something like F10 Boot menu during boot. Try mashing whatever key it
says and selecting the USB drive. You may need to disable Secure Boot to make it boot. For help regarding either of these things
consult your motherboard's User Manual.

Installing Windows

7. If you don't intend to keep any data, delete all partitions. Otherwise delete partitions you don't need (old install, etc..)
8. Select Unallocated space and click next. Selecting empty space makes the installer automatically create partitions it needs.

9. Wait until it finishes. It might reboot several times during the process.
