It should be available in small print from the Win7 bios update page. Now without a cdrom drive, it gets tricky, I think I was using a perl script I found somewhere called eltorito.pl to extract the disk image and just dd'd that to a usb disk. If you have a CD drive installed, of course it's much easier to just burn the iso using cdrecord...worked like a charm.
