Step 5: Update your Firmware on your eee PC 1000 (Optional)ĭownload the “ASUS Update Utility” under the Utilities Section on the ASUS Website. Although it might be perfect for a modern Hi-Res screen the New Windows 7 toolbar is a bit big for an eee PC. I also recommend you right click on the Taskbar and use the properties section to shrink the toolbar. I recommend you enable the “Windows Classic” theme, and go through the Windows Services panel to disable whatever Services you may not need.

I believe you could use a similar process with the other drivers to satify the ASUS utility. Once the computer rebooted I got one less annoying error from the ACPI utility.

Once the driver installs, for me I got a blank screen and I had to hard reboot. Since technically the Win7 driver is newer you’ll have to insist on using the older Windows Vista driver. You’ll have to use the “Have Disk” method of overriding Windows 7. It’s the Intel 945GM Chipset that the eee PC 1000 uses. I did this by downloading the Windows Vista 32bit Driver from the Intel Website. I’ve so far been able to get the the ACPI utility to stop complaining about the Intel Utility. You can End the Process to end these messages, but you’ll also loose access to some function keys. You’ll get occasional popups saying that certain keys have been disabled from the utility. Select your eee PC from the list, then download the ACPI drivers from underneath the “ATK” category. The ACPI Drivers and other Drivers are available on the ASUS Support website. For example the ability to turn off the Bluetooth and WiFi radios from within windows. This device also controls the eee PC specific hotkeys. It will detect in Device Manager as an “Unknown Device”. All of the hardware detects normally except the ASUS ACPI driver.

Windows 7 actually detects more hardware directly after install than Windows XP does. On the eee PCs with hard drives that may be fine but on the standard eee PC that would result in barely any free space.

You should format the 8GB OS SSD during the installation, this way it does not install Windows 7 and leave your existing files alone.

Windows 7 installation should now start as normal.

From the boot menu select your USB Flash Drive.

While the POST screen is showing tap the ESC key.

Make sure all of your files are backed up.

So running compact is not neccesary if you do not want to. The end installation will leave you with around 1GB of free space on the OS SSD. Fortunately, most eee PC users have a 8GB OS drive and another drive for files. A lot of guides will tell you you have to run compact on the drive.

The installation is actually remarkably straight forward. Copy the entire contents of the Windows 7 disk to the flash drive.

Now your flash drive is prepared for the Windows 7 files.

Bow run “bootsect /nt60 driveletterhere” wheras driveletterhere is the drive letter of your flash drive.

Type the drive letter of the drive i.e.

Once you have the image loaded in one way or another we’re going to run a file on the disk. Either burn the image to a disk or use a ISO mounting tool to mount the disk image.

We now need to insert or mount the Windows 7 drive.

You should now be back at command prompt.

Finally type “assign” to have windows assign the drive a mount point.

You can also add “quick” after NTFS to perform a quick format.

Next we will format the drive with the command “FORMAT fs=ntfs” you could also use FAT32 but I prefer NTFS.

Then type “active”, this will mark the partition bootable.

Now type “create partition primary”, which will create a new partition.

Type “clean” to wipe the partition table.

Now run select disk # where # is the number associated with your flash drive.

Next run the “list disk” command to get a view of the available devices connected to the machine.

At command prompt open diskpart (type diskpart then press enter).

I would recommend a 4GB drive, as the Windows DVD ISO is 2.35GBįirst we’re going to open up diskpart to prepare the Flash Disk. The N270 ATOM processor does not support x86_64 (amd64) extensions, so you’re going to want to grab the 32bit version. Your Free for One Year Windows 7 Key and Release Client DVD-ISO can be downloaded from here:

This guide will tell you how to acquire Windows 7, prepare a flash drive to install Windows 7, and to acquire the necessary drivers after installation is finished. I figured this would be a good time to make a guide specifically for you in the same situation as I was.

I saw a few incomplete guides out there, including the one that I used to install Windows 7 on my eee PC 1000.
