Installing window 7 from a virtual drive

Hey!
Guy i've just broke by dvd writer and i have an image of windows 7 64-bit... I use Windows XP Pro 64-bit... Is it possible to install windows 7 from a virtual drive? can anyone guide me with it? Help Guys!

Hey!
I don't think just a thing is possible...! Well when you start to install Windows 7 from a Virtual Drive, it will go well untill the system restarts and the OS continues to boot and install the later part, it will boot in default hardware profile and the virtual drivers would not be loaded as it is not a physical drive and not a hardware part of the new OS...! You got to get your DVD burner working...!

Hey!
Right, As Fame explained you cannot install any OS from a virtual drive except you are installing it on a virtual machine as everything is virtual there... Well all you can do is you can install it from a Flash Drive or a USB pendrive... Refer these threads :
