I need to use this utility to change one of the parameters of my new WD hard drive: 
<http://support.wdc.com/product/download.asp?groupid=609&sid=113&lang=en>

It has truly unreadable instructions:

> 
> * Extract wdidle3.exe onto a bootable medium (floppy, CD-RW, network drive, etc.).
> * Boot the system with the hard drive to be updated to the medium where the update file was extracted to.
> * Run the file by typing wdidle3.exe at the command prompt and press enter.
>

I understand that this bootable medium should be some version of DOS? How can I make my USB stick a bootable medium compatible with this utility (I don't have a diskette drive)? I have Windows 7 and Debian Linux installed.
