3. select disk 1 (*if your USB is disk 1)
4. clean
5. create partition primary
6. select partition 1 (*this is 1, no matter what number is your USB disk)
7. active

If your question is how to install Windows in just a pendrive, my answer is as simple as it should be enough space to install an OS in it.

Second for Windows you must have to create a primary partition for this. Just format with NTFS format.

Third pendrive chipset should be good in class & must should be 32 - 64 GB

Step1: Convert USB pen drive to boot-able drive
first connect pen-drive at any USB port then type following command
cmd->Diskpart->listdisk ->select disk 1->create partition primary ->select partition 1->clean->format quick fs=ntfs label=os ->enter
after loading 100% again type active.
Now pen-drive is converted into boot-able drive.
Now paste your desired OS.
After pasting OS just restart the PC and enter into BIOS, change USB boot priority is first.
That's all
