I installed Vista on a disk yesterday so that we have a machine to test
those things on in the future.

Universal USB Installer, latest version, runs fins. And it does not copy
the full ISO on the USB. Maybe the user did.

I also managed to clone the USB I created to another USB without problem.

Nonetheless, the interface changed quite a bit (at least the way it
looks) and I should get rid of the outdated screenshots.
