    I have a Aspire One A110 that i want to install Windows 7 on (with the help of a usb-memory). But all the guides i find on how to do this seems to asume you already run windows, which i don't since i have the Linux version of Aspire One.

    Could anyone help me with how to do this? My 2nd computer runs OS X so i can't make a usb-memory ready that way either.

    I don't know what you have access to, but the easiest thing to do would be to download the iso. Extract the iso using winrar on a second pc. Download and run vLite. Point vLite to the folder the extracted iso is in. Using vLite remove misc features you won't need (ie additional languages, Media Center). Rebuild the iso. Extract the new iso onto a USB drive. Boot from the USB drive on your AAO and let the installer work its magic.

    I hope my wording is understandable.
