Njengoba i-Apple ingenye yezinkampani zokuqala ukukhipha abadlali be-DVD kumakhompyutha abo, abakhiqizi abaningi maduze noma kamuva banqume ukwenza okufanayo ukuzama ukunciphisa usayizi wama-laptops abo ngangokunokwenzeka. Njengoba i-Apple iyeke ukusebenzisa la ma-optical drive kumakhompyutha abo, noma yimuphi umsebenzisi wama-laptops enkampani kuye kwadingeka asebenzise i-pendrive ukukwazi ukufaka inguqulo entsha ngayinye yohlelo lokusebenza elenziwa yinkampani minyaka yonke, uhlelo olusebenzayo, ngokungafani neWindows, ebekhululekile ngokuphelele ezinhlotsheni eziningana.
Ngenhlanhla I-OS X akuyona ukuphela kohlelo lokusebenza olungafakwa nge-USB drive, ngoba iMicrosoft nayo ivumela le nketho ngemuva kokufika kwezincwadi zokubhala, lezozincwadi ezineprosesa elinganiselwe kakhulu elilinganiselwa kuma-intshi ayi-10 futhi elingazange lifake i-optical drive. Ukuze ufake inguqulo yethu ye-Windows 7 kusuka ku-USB drive, okokuqala nje kumele silande noma senze isithombe se-DVD ngohlelo lokusebenza ukuze siyidlulisele ku-USB drive ukuze sikwazi ukuqala i-laptop yethu noma i-PC kusuka lokho kudrayivu bese uqhubeka nokufakwa.
Lapho sesilungiselele i-USB yethu ngesithombe seWindows 7 noma ngeDVD, sizoqhubeka nokuqala kabusha idivayisi yethu bese siya ku-BIOS. Ikhompyutha ngayinye isinikeza indlela ehlukile yokuyithola. Ukuze senze lokhu, kuzofanele sicindezele ukhiye we-ESC, noma ukhiye we-F2, yize njengoba ngishilo, ngokushesha nje lapho sizoqala ikhompyutha, izosikhombisa indlela yokuyithola ngaphambi kokuthi iqale ukulayisha uhlelo lokusebenza. Uma sesingaphakathi kwe-BIOS kufanele nje siye esigabeni se-boot (BOOT) futhi shintsha i-boot drive eyinhloko ibe yi-USB drive esikhundleni sediski enzima noma i-optical drive esinayo kwi-PC yethu.
