it’d like it’s reading my mind and puts stuff there that I wanted to type! Cudos steve jobs. Cudos

Find your win7 ISO, and extract it’s contents to a folder. You can use a wide variety of tools for this (7zip,winrar,another method)
VERY IMPORTANT STEP : Change the file “bootmgr” to “NTLDR”
Your USB is now BOOTABLE !!! enjoy.
