Good evening everyone! Well ... in the course of a day, my superdrive crapped out, and my Windows 7 install caught a bug and had to be put down as well. So now I'm stuck with the question of how, without a superdrive, or a large thumb drive to install my Windows 7, or Vista back into bootcamp. I bought an external Multi Drive, but as I'm sure you're all aware, it's not letting me boot from it. I also have an external USB hard drive that I can utilize as well. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated ... I'm desperate for an answer.

Thanks in advance!
