Booting from a flash drive fails with a message: operating system not found

I tried to boot from a flash drive, but it says operating system not found. Is there something wrong, that I did? I used a program called ISO on USB and he managed to copy the installer of Ubuntu on my flash drive.

As you try to install a Linux operating system, I recommend you this announcement in a Linux forum. Not many people on these forums will be familiar with the installation of LInux.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

    Above is the way you normally boot from the Vista recovery disks.

    If you have tried to boot from the recovery without success disks, contact the manufacturer of your computer.

Someone able to boot from a flash drive?

    Hello and welcome,

    What linux distro do you use, and it is able to start on a UEFI system?

    I'm guessing here since I don't have a machine like yours, but I guess that BIOS refuses to see the USB if it doesn't have an appropriate structure of UEFI boot on it.

    You may be able to start the flash player by accessing the BIOS and setting the mode of inheritance.

  • Operating system not found on Equium - PXE - E61:Media test failed

    Hi all

    My daughter has a computer satellite laptop running XP.
    However, the system does not start and the following messages:

    PXE - test failed - check the cable for E61:Media
    PXE - M0F: output of the PXE Rom
    Operating system not found

    We do not have a disk operating system.

    What is the problem and how can I do for her?

    Hello

    For me, it seems that the HARD drive is dead and the laptop can not find the installed operating system.
    In this case, he tried to boot from different sources and finally LAN.
    But it does not and therefore, you get the PXE - E61:Media test failure error message.

    In my opinion, the HARD disk needs to be replaced and the operating system must be installed again.

    I have been transferring pictures from my Canon Digital via the Canon software in a Windows "My pictures" file for about 2 years with great success.  Today, an attempt to transfer was interrupted with the message 'Save folder not found' "Cameras Windows DC.  I noticed that was missing the file "my images".  I added one, I reinstalled the Canon software, I tried to download the image using the "Windows Photo Gallery", but got the same message as above.  What can I do to be able to download the photos again?

  • HP 15-af131dx: unable to boot from a flash drive

    My HP 15 - af131dx don't let me boot from a live bootable flash drive. I was able to boot from the drive on my hp mini 110 computer and in the past, I ran Ubuntu on a USB key and it worked fine. What should I do?

    Thanks for the HP forums post!

    I read your post and wanted to help. I understand you want to boot from a USB drive on your 15 HP - af131dx. Please try to access the boot device Options and select boot from USB drive.

    To access the Boot Device Options, turn on the computer and immediately press ESC to display the Start Menu and press the F9 key. The USB key may not appear in the menu of Boot Device at all, unless these an optical disk drive or USB drive is turned on, plugged in and holds a bootable media source.

  • We get an error ' ' operating system not found "while tyring to windows 7 boot

    I installed Windows 7 from a USB on a new ssd using F11. Now I can only access Windows by pressing F11 at startup upward. Otherwise, I get "Not found operating system". I have a Vaio S.

    Hello

    This problem may occur if one or more of the following conditions are met:

    (a) basic input/output system (BIOS) does not detect the hard drive.

    (b) the hard disk is damaged.

    (c) sector 0 of the physical disk has an incorrect or malformed master boot (MBR) record.

    Note: Some third-party programs or alteration of the disk can damage an MBR.

    (d) an incompatible partition is marked as Active.

    (e) a partition which contains the MBR is no longer active.

     

     

    Method 1:

    I suggest that you update the basic input/output system (BIOS) to the last version by contacting the motherboard or computer manufacturer, and the Coachman.

    Important: Change (CMOS) BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  • Operating system not found, no boot device has been detected but can run XP in Bootcamp without problem?

    The title says it all. I searched and tried the partial fixes to some of the questions.

    I have installed Bootcamp and a working copy of XP Pro works no problem at all.

    I installed VMFusion and merger goes to the partition, and I get the error no bootable devices and not found any BONES. It seems trying to boot from a network, it works to resolve a MAC address. Then he hangs on. Then don't say: "no found bone." I put the disc XP Prop and try reinstalling and it said: none found disk... I have attached a few photos.

    Thank you

    Note: These senses are different which have already been posted so read and follow through... Note: These steps assume that you have a single Apple to default installation of Windows on a single Boot Camp partition and Boot Camp of VMware Fusion single default partition Machine virtual (without a snapshot *) and if you have changed the partition Boot Camp Virtual Machine to add additional hard disks to be virtual or RAW disk then do not use these instructions unless you backup the Boot Camp partition the Machine package virtual first. * Also note that Fusion 2.0.0 may accidentally have a snapshot with the virtual partition Boot Camp Machine and it should not have, then you should check to ensure that the condition does not exist as well. (With merger closed if the partition Boot Camp Virtual Machine package is over 1 MB in size, then you might have a snapshot in place and do not continue with these instructions.)

    ===

    1. If the merger is open, close it.

    2. in a Terminal (/ Applications/Utilities/Terminal) copy and paste command, as the following and then press Enter and it will delete the partition Boot Camp Virtual Machine of the metadata and the Virtual Machine to help.

    Note: This does not affect the Boot Camp partition install windows in that it does not remove it.  Also be sure you copy all the command line below, as well as, "RM" at the beginning of the ' (quote) after the s in the Machines. "
