Boot Camp 5.0

I'm trying to put Windows 7 on my MacBook Pro using Boot Camp 5.0. I decided to use the USB method, but on my version of Boot Camp this option doesn't come up. Is it no longer possible to use a USB to install Windows? Also, I am unable to create a partition without the install disk. None of the answers I can find online help because they seem to be using pervious version of Boot Camp.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7)

Only for Macs that ship w/o an internal DVD can you so if you use to be able and now cannot.... if you don't have an internal superdrive.

The Boot Camp Assistant can burn Boot Camp software (drivers) to a DVD or copy it to a USB storage device, such as a flash drive or hard drive. These are the only media you can use to install Boot Camp software.
