Step 1: Download Androidx86 6.0 -RC1 Marshmallow.iso
To get started, head to the Androidx86 project page. You’ll find the download here, but make sure you download the correct latest version. It’s available for both 32-bit and 64-bit machines, so Desktop users can also install on their PC.
Please Note: 32-bit file size is smaller than 64-bit file, please follow the link given above.
Step 2: Create a Bootable USB or Flash Drive
Now that you found the ISO file you need, it’s time to write it to a USB drive so you can boot from it. There are two main programs for doing this: UNetBootIn, which is cross platform, and Linux Live, which is only for Windows but very straightforward. You can also use Rufus tool for creating Android-x86 bootable USB drive.
Use whichever you prefer, just copy the contents of the ISO to a flash drive. It doesn’t need to be huge: 1 GB should do it.

Click Here To Download Rufus – Bootable USB Creator
By using Rufus Tool, Make a bootable USB flash drive using the ISO image file that you downloaded.
