Installing Windows without superdrive or USB I'm trying to intall Windows 7 on my Mid 2009 Macbook Pro, however I'm running into A LOT of trouble.

My superdrive have been broken for years and I can't boot from a bootable USB. (I created one in Virtual Box using the Windows 7 USB/DVD Tool)

I then followed this tutorial on how to start the installation from within VMWare Fusion (http://www.andrewsavory.com/blog/2011/2156#), which seemed to work at first, but once I rebooted and selected the Windows Partition I got an error saying that windows could not be installed due to "recent software or hardware changes".
I had selected the x86 version, so I figured I might as well try the x64 version and see if that makes a difference.

So I removed my bootcamp partition, created it again, went into VMWare after doing the same process as before, now I simply get a message saying "No operating system found".

I'm wondering with my options are to actually install Windows without a superdrive or a bootable USB.
Can I just copy the installation files to the bootcamp partition and "make it start"?
Try using WinToFlash in creating your bootable USB.

I also ran into problems when creating a Bootcamp partition. I also don't have access to a SuperDrive when I created a Windows partition.

First, use WinToFlash on your Windows 7 iso. Please use at least a 4GB USB drive and make sure that you don't have any important files in that drive as WinToFlash will delete all files when creating the bootable USB. After creating the bootable USB, go ahead and create a Bootcamp partition in your Mac drive using this tutorial. Hope this helps.
