How to burn .ISO image of Windows 7 on Linux after dd?

Good afternoon, tell me how to burn an .ISO image of Windows 7 on Linux?

I tried to write with the program balenaEtcher-1.5.116-x64.AppImage , the BIOS writes - Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key I also tried the UNetbootin
program , but the BIOS did not miss it either. After such

sudo dd if=/home/maxim/Загрузки/ISO/Win7PE_v5.5m_xalex.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=5M
There is no way I can format the flash drive.

I took the .ISO image on the first page w3bsit3-dns.com
Tell me where to get the .ISO image, or what program is better to burn and how can I format the USB flash drive after dd ?

And why do you need to format the flash drive after dd? After it, the flash drive should be working at least for legacy mode. If you want in UEFI mode, then the procedure is more complicated! First you need to create a GPT partition table using gparted, create and format a partition with fat32, copy files from the ISO image to that partition, unmount and put the boot label on the partition. If the ISO image is designed to work with GPT (and Win7 must be calculated), then the flash drive will become fully bootable for UEFI.
But it's much easier to get into the BIOS and select Legacy boot.

Not every ISO is suitable for a flash drive. Look for the right one.
