How to Install Windows 7 or Windows Vista on Physical Machine Without DVD Media
I had to use bootsect.exe from DVD Win7 because same tool from Win10 not work in WinPE (WinXP)

Code:

bootsect.exe is not a valid Win32 application.

That is pretty roundabout, to get a bootable usb most of the time it just works to partition the usb drive with diskmgmt.msc, format it (ntfs if install.wim/esd is greater then 4GiB) and then extract the iso (with winrar or similar) to the usb. and it will end up being bootable.

Or you can still boot with wimboot and only copy the sources folder to the usb to use it as installation source.
