Boot CD that will allow me to load USB drivers.

[canadian_divx]

Ok heres the situation.

Rack server. doing testing with windows 7 and some application base.
It does not have Boot from USB properly. Nor does it have a DVD drive. We have one on order but its 2 weeks back ordered. I dont want to wait

I want to install 7 on this machine.

What im looking for.
Some sort of bootable cd that once its booted up will load some basic drivers and USB drivers so i can then access the USB dvdrom and install windows 7

the bois does not see the USB dvd rom at all.

anyone have any ideas or know where to find out how to do this?

how would you boot the bootable CD in the first place to get the drivers to drive

there is a CD rom in the rack only. no dvd.

I JUST saw an article somewhere a few days ago that might be a solution to this very thing. I wish I could remember where I spotted it but a couple quick Google searches got me to this page Doing The Impossible: Boot Computer From USB or CDROM Even If BIOS Not Supported Using PLoP.

Hope this helps.
