Best Way On How To Install Windows 8 Using USB or Flash Drive

                 We all know most specially with the computer technicians that not all of system units are having Optical Disk Drive like Netbook, unless you are going to use an external ODD. It means that we are going to have an alternative way on how to install Windows 8 without the use of Optical Disc Drive. Let us talk about USB and Flash Drives. Yes, we can use it for installing Windows 8 using it's ISO file, because Microsoft also sold ISO version of the said system (optional). Or else if you have another system unit and if you have only the DVD copy make an image of it using either of the following: Power ISO, IMGBurn, or Magic ISO.

CPU-Z Computer Technician Tool For Gathering System Information

                Let me show you the feature of CPU-Z. CPU-Z is a software that can help most of computer technician or computer distributor (specially for refurbished computer) in gathering the information of the devices in the system. The best thing is, it does not copy any file in any windows directory, nor write to the registry. Most of technician are only using the DXDIAG command to find the information, so now I am going to show you in getting information easily and detailed.
