ESD is a file with high compression ratio. The compression rate of our common GHO files is not high. ESD files require special software to complete the installation. Let's take the installation of win7 system as an example to introduce the installation of ESD files. Method.

1, open winntsetup, select the folder containing the windows installation file "here, click "select" find your ESD installation file."Select boot drive" The default is C drive, "install disk location" refers to which disk you want to install the system to, such as C drive, or D drive. etc. The following "options" column has a "version" , refers to the version of the system to be installed, if there are multiple versions in the ESD file, you can choose here.
