<div>
a USB drive of 4 GB will do the job?<br />

</div>


<div>
I believe so. It may be just over though as a DVD is 4.7gb. &nbsp;I haven't done this personally. 
</div>


<div>
You'll need an 8gb drive. Its JUST over the 4gb drives formatted size. 
</div>


<div>
thank you all of you for your help, it seems that this guy is the one who gave me the right solution in first time.<br />

Problem after installing windows 7 on Mac Mini

Apple's early computers ran on a variety of operating systems, including a Pascal version and one based on CP/M, before releasing its ProDOS with the advent of its 16-bit computer. With the release of the Lisa, which had its own OS, Apple and computing entered the graphical age; it was followed by the Macintosh, which offered a series of "System" operating systems. Other Mac operating systems included PowerPC until Apple acquired NeXT and folded it into the Mac OS. Current operating systems for Apple devices are Mac OS-X and iOS.

Apple OS

Mac OS X is the desktop operating system from Apple Inc., found on Macintosh computers. OS X consists of a Mach/BSD-based kernel, operating system interfaces primarily based on FreeBSD and additional frameworks (written in C, C++ and Objective-C providing user interface and application-level services.
