In the BIOS boot device options

Hello

I want to use my USB to be bootable since my laptop Winxdows XP.  When I go to the BIOS to change the settings,

the Boot Options available are:

Startup CD-ROM (ENABLE)

Boot disk (ENABLE)

(DISABLE) internal network card boot

BOOT ORDER

USB disk on key

USB floppy drive

CD-ROM ATAPI CD/DVD drive

Portable hard drive

USB hard drive

Network card

Please indicate which of these Boot Options should I 'ACTIVATE' and

that the boot ORDER should I choose to be at the top: -.

1. If I want to boot from my USB key USB

2. If I want to boot my Portable external hard drive

3. If I want to boot from my CD/DVD Rom

4. If I want to boot from my laptop

The "boot" of Word to say 'start' in language computer, right?

So if I chose to boot from my USB key, my laptop cannot start to load Windows XP because it normal would be more until I go back to the BIOS to change the setting?

Why cannot it not auto answer to the user's choice to start the Windows?

BTW, what does "Starting the internal network card" means?

Please notify.

Thank you

To see if you can boot from a USB key, you must go into your BIOS and look at the boot order.  If you see "USB stick" in the list, then you can probably - but it should be placed in the order before the drive hard to make it work.

If you want a boot disc/USB drive for repair purposes, I highly recommend the free Hirens Boot CD.  This CD comes with a bunch of diagnosis and repair integrated tools.  If you can't fix it with this CD, it cannot be fixed without having to reinstall Windows.  Of course, this is not Microsoft.

Don't be fooled by the fake download links.  The correct link is a file .zip downstairs in a light green rectangle with a drive icon.

There are instructions to create a Bootable CD and bootable USB Thumbdrive:

    Hi haouatim,

    There is nothing indicating 'Boot from cd' in the bios. You will need to arrange the priority of disc to create your CD / DVD Drive as the first boot device.

    Leave the Windows XP cd in the drive and restart your computer. It will then display you the option «press any key to boot from CD...» ", and then you must press a key or the Enter key.

    Hi Dominic,

    Are you able to get into BIOS to make changes?

    If so, you can try to reset the default settings of the BIOS and check.

    NOTE: 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.

    You can also try to remove all external usb devices that can be connected to the system and start-up and see if the system boots.

  • Satellite A100 CD/DVD drive is not listed in the BIOS or Device Manager

    1. the original drive does not work. After inserting a disc shines the light of the drive and it runs - but nothing else.
    A little investigation shows no optical drive listed in the BIOS or Device Manager (naturally).

    2. perhaps I would reinsert the disc, but I can't find any instructions on internet about this disc removal/replacement.
    Or in the operating manual.

    Can someone direct me to these instructions?

    Thank you very much

    S manual is not the same thing as maintenance manuals. Please note that this is not the same and the exact description on laptop procedure disassembly is only authorized service.

    Anyway, as far as I know the optical disk drive is fixed with a screw and it can be removed from the underside. The screw is placed near the cover of exact memory on the optical drive. Not on side cooling event, but on the other side.

    Be careful because everything you do is at your own risk.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BB Bold 9930 cannot find the battery under device options saving Mode

    I have a BB Bold 9930 with OS v7.1.0.163 and I can't find the battery under device options saving Mode. I was told that I needed to update my device to a newer version, after around .3xx software do not know that. But when I try to update my device through BlackBerry Web page software or Office Manager, they both tell me that my device software is up-to-date. How can I update my device software to a newer version on OS 7.1?

    OK, I thought that you must have some higher than 7.1.0.342 BONES to get the battery in watch mode on your output device. Apparently Viva has not published a more recent OS you already have.

    Operating system device provided are "released" by specific carriers once that they are certified and trained to their support technicians, but still, you are able to load any carrier the same model by following the instructions below.

    See the link below to download it and follow these simple instructions.

    Make a backup of your device first, using Desktop Manager > backup. Close the office at the end Manager.

    1. download the OS files to the PC then install on the PC by running (double click) the downloaded file.

    3. plug in the BB and double-click on "Loader.exe." It is located in the same place as the above vendor.xml file.

  • Priority of the BIOS boot options is not available

    Hello. I'm changing the boot on my Windows 8 Samsung ATIV Smart PC Pro sequence. I wish that the machine checks first to any bootable USB device before going on the hard drive. This would be necessary in case I would like to recover from a hard drive failure.

    When I press F2, I can see the "Boot Device Priority". But there is only 1 option available: Windows Boot Manager.
    I'm sure that there are other options available, but I did something to remove!
    I disabled the Fast BIOS mode as suggested by some, but the situation persists.
    How can I see other boot options?
    Kind regards

  • Hi, install SSD on Acer Aspire VN7 - 591 G-70RT and setting for the primary boot device?

    Hello

    I have an Acer Aspire VN7 - 591 G-70RT that came with a Western Digital blue 5400 RPM HARD drive which is limitation of my performance of laptops. I contacted Acer recently to ask for upgrades that might be made and they confirmed that I could build an SSD 256 GB and up to 16 GB of ram.

    I bought an SSD now and install, but I wanted to ask how I could continue on the definition of the SSD as my main drive.

    At this point, I guess I could install the SSD, then select it as primary boot device in the BIOS by pressing F2, and then install windows 10 via my USB. If this should be good to reboot or the existence of windows on my current HARD drive causes a conflict?

    Thank you

    I have the device works now and here's what I did.

    WEAR AN ANTI STATIC BAND:

    Step 1) remove all the screws on the underside of the laptop

    Step 2) use spudger or credit GENTLY lift a gap between the keyboard and the base, then use the credit card to slide slowly into the space to jump open clips, NOT FORCE.

    Step 3) (OPTIONAL) remove the keyboard connectors by moving clip and gently remove the cable from the Jack. However the HARD drive slipped in for me without necessary to detach.

    Step 4) unplug original WD HDD blue reversing the clip and disconnect the cable

    Step 5) close laptop together and boot with Windows 10 USB install

    Step 6) install windows on new SSD (for me windows automatically activated via the BIOS/UEFI) if it doesn't happen for you, simply re-attatch the original HARD disk.

    Step 7) if the activation is successful, again set HARD drive and original format. I have kept all the original ACER RECOVERY and Partitions (Healthy) in case I need to restore factory default, but formatted primary partition.

  • Portege R200 cannot set on the BIOS boot sequence

    Hi all.

    Our R200 entered mode of hibernation after that the battery power is low, then by some unfortunate twist of fate, the battery got deleted accidentally. Now it does not start correctly because every time it displays a BSOD stating Unmountable_Boot_Volume.

    I could solve this problem easily by disabling the hiberfil.sys file, which is the reason for the BSOD, if only I could change the boot order. Unfortunately, enter the BIOS, I am only able to access the first page where the only editable elements are time, date, and passwords. Pressing Pageup and Pagedn does nothing. The BIOS is updated to the last appearing on this site.

    Pressing F12 or F2 when the toshiba logo and icons appear does nothing no more. It's a HARD disk 1.8 "and there are no adapters available in our region. I can boot from a CD if and only if I take the HD. But then, it is useless since I can't fix it like that. It is not recognized if I it reconnect after booting. When I reboot, it does the BSOD thing again. It is becoming a frustrating cycle.

    I scoured these forums for other ways to boot from the CD and apply the suggestions, like hitting 'c', nothing helps.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.
