Question New SSD, I can't install Windows 10 (conventionally)

[Absentis97]

I have a Crucial MX500 on its way to my house and I (a stupid 16 year old) just assumed I had a 8GB+ USB drive laying around. I have no blank discs to put in my DVD drive.

I don't.

I have no tech shops near-by to buy one either. I cleaned the money I had in my bank account for my SSD.

Is there a way I can install Windows 10 unconventionally?
Is it possible to install a small OS (on my only available flash drive; 3.7GB Maplin Flash Drive) so that I can install Windows then?

Even if you could install a small OS , you'd still need the win 10 install files

Yes. But I saw somebody doing it by downloading the Windows 10 ISO from Microsoft and running the setup file in there. Would this work on a small OS, say TAILS or some other open-source OS?

None of your friends have one you could borrow? Or maybe burn you a dvd?

"I saw somebody doing it..."
So follow his instructions, exactly.

You don't need a tech shop to get a flash drive, WalMart sells 16, 32GB for like $6. Just about any store will have a flash drive you can get.
