1. Insert Windows 10 Disc installer to DVD drive, or if you use ISO image, please mount to be a  drive.
2. Insert/connect  8GB USB Flash drive  to the USB port.
3. Open the File Explorer to know the drive letters for DVD containing Windows installer and for the flash drive.
For example in My laptop, the drive letter for DVD installer is F, and for the USB Flash drive is H.

4. Run the Command line/ Command prompt as administrator.
5. In the command prompt type diskpart hit Enter.

In the example/capture above, my flash drive is Disk 1. (with 8GB /7710MB).

7. Type:  select disk 1 then hit Enter.


DISKPART>select disk 1



There will be a note:  disk 1 is now selected disk.


8. Type:  Clean then hit enter.

12. The next command is to format the flash drive.
Type: format FS=NTFS ,  then hit Enter.

The Format process will take a rather long time because it is the full format, not quick format.
Wait until format process finished.

bootsect /nt60 H:



If successfully, will show : Successfully updated NTFS filesystem bootcode. Bootcode was successfully updated on all targeted volumes.


The last step is copying all files in the Windows 10 DVD installer to the flash drive.
See again the drive letters ( in this sample/mine, DVD drive is F, and the flash drive is H).

18. Type:  xcopy f:\*.*  h:\/e/f/h

Where f is DVD drive and h is the flash drive (change drives with yours), and the /e/f/h are command, don't be changed.

F:\boot> xcopy f:\*.*  h:\/e/f/h


The copying  process will take a rather long time because the sizes about 4 GB., 

After copy process finished, the flash drive is ready for use to install Windows 10 to the computer/laptop.
Please change the boot priority in BIOS setting, DVD drive becomes first boot in the target computer.

Vaio stuck on loading screen after upgrading to Windows 10

My Sony Vaio laptop model : VPCCA16FB with originally using Windows 7 operating system, then now I already upgraded it to Windows 10. All drivers are already installed for each device, everything is OK with this Windows 10 OS. The only problem is:  when I switch the laptop on or restarting it, after vaio logo appears then it stuck with blank screen and it takes about 2 minutes. After that, then it continues to loading Windows. After I googling about the problem, I am not only the one, other people also have the similar problem with their laptops.
