I tried Hard reset / cleaning of motherboard and processor + apply new thermal paste / boot without battery / different ram sticks on various slot machines etc. of usual bugs with no luck.
The code is 2 blinks on NumLock and caps lock shift then 3s break and again 2 blinks, I looked on the HP site it means the bios corruption and just tried to do the restore bios with Windows + B + power button several times, laptop stays on for 10 seconds and restarts and Flash again to 2 continuous or blink code flashes (cpu failure). but 90% of the time of his flashing 2 x and then a few second break.

Createinstallmedia used to make a USB bootable el capitan, MPB 2011 won't start him.
I used createinstallmedia to make a boot USB el capitan drive. I'm going to replace the hard drive from one computer to another, and he would use the USB boot disk to install el capitan on the new disc. The command worked very well, and I can open Setup very well. When I take Option and reboot I see the installer from USB option, but then about 3/4 of the way through the progress bar I just get a grey screen with a circle and a line through it (such as no smoking sign).
My MBP end 2011 is up-to-date, and I downloaded a new copy of the installer from el capitan today for this. I have also ensured that reformat USB OS x scope and GUID key.
I was under the impression that I would be able to use the USB to boot (or almost) no matter which mac and run disk utility, or the installer. I'd love to help if anyone has any info on why it does not work.
Thank you!
Compatibility list...
Update of OS X El Capitan - Apple Support
If you are certain that the model is correct & you have 2 GB or more RAM, you may need to see how you did to the image of the USB.
Apple has this info, you follow this article or use something else?
Create an installer for OS X - Apple support bootable
Is the output still in your Terminal window, it finished OK?
I would try to use another USB drive, they can sometimes fail to work for the boot also try other USB ports & remove all non-essential devices.

Bootable USB Stick - El Capitan/Mountain Lion
Using a MacBook running El Capitan, can I create a bootable USB key to run Cougar?
Unless you've downloaded the OS X App Store before the publication of the Mavericks Mountain Lion, your only option is a purchase ($20USD) Cougar via the Apple store online. Once you have downloaded the OS X App Store ML using this purchase key, you can then run DiskmakerX top to make a USB bootable (8 GB min).
The current (5.0.3) of DiskMaker X version only works with the Mavericks, Yosemite and El Capitan. Mountain Lion, to the 3.0.4 version on the developers site. It provides a direct download link to it. I don't know if this old X DiskMaker work on El Capitan.

How can I create a bootable USB of OSX Snow Leopard on a MacBook with El Capitan?
HI there, the hard drive failed on my MacBook unibody aluminum end 2008. a couple of years ago, I put in 8 GB of RAM so my thought has been that it is not yet time to entirely replace the MacBook. I replaced the drive HARD failed with a 500 GB compatible hard drive. I tried and failed to install El Calitan via a bootable USB key, because my machine is too old. I just ordered a copy of the Snow Leopard DVD on the Apple store. I wonder how I can install snow leopard on my computer, given that the DVD player on this subject does not? I am able to create a Version bootable USB of Snow Leopard on MacBook for my roommate? He is running to El Capitan. Could someone explain if this is possible and if so, how?
Thanks in advance!
If his MacBook has a DVD player and 2 computers have the correct wiring, try the target disk Mode.

I am trying to install Windows 7 via USB, (El Capitan, Macbook Pro - early 2011), but this mistake "No. BOOTABLE DEVICE - INSERT BOOT DISK AND press ANY KEY ' when bootcamp restart my macbook to begin the installation. Any ideas?
You cannot use a USB on Mac 2011 Installer. Please burn the ISO on a physical DVD Windows (a DVD - R Carbon SL on the rate of burning slower is better) and use it to install Windows. The file Info.plist changes only allowing the creation of USB, but does not fully support a USB Installation.

Portege 3480CT: how to make a USB bootable floppy drive?
I need help to make a USB bootable floppy drive.
My laptop 3480CT has not the traditional floppy drive instead, it uses a USB floppy drive and the bios has an option to boot from USB FDD.I would like to use a USB key to start (a Lexar Jumpdrive 32 MB 05dch 0080 h and GTX 1 GB 1516 h pid pid 8628 h), instead of the floppy. I want to load the boot XP on floppies, so I run recovery programs using chkdsk.
I tried the usual suspects, the bootloader makebootfat and mkbt20 HP.
I tried the demo version of the commercial product Flashboot.
I photographed a floppy back 5.0 system on the USB key using the I-Setup demo.
All failed including the specific option in the makebootfat images for FDD option and 3 different options of Flashboot.I ran
http://Enos.itcollege.EE/~mkalme/Pahn/tut/tut.htmlUsing Hexplorer ICY, I was able to confirm that the DOS5.0 on the boot sector pendrive is identical to the diskette.
I could start in Dos5.0 from a floppy disk with drivers USB Panasonic and confirm that my Lexar was a system of 1.44 MB disk and command.com displayed in the directory. The GXT is not recognized by the Panasonic, nor BACK USB drivers to Duse 4.4 4.9. Another worrying indicator, it is my computer XP did not see all of the files on the pendrives, not command.com, or two hidden files (view all the hidden files option).I learned that Transcend a specific option that creates a bootable 1.44 mb floppy
image on their USB key.Here is what I have gathered, corrections and suggestions are welcome.
Interface USB the USB protocol specifications
bInterfaceSubClass field specifies the Protocol
01 order reduced block (RBC) a flash device
UFI 04 a floppy drive floppy drive
05 FDD SFF-8070i SFF-8070i command blocks however, funding may be in a different subclass for example RBCbInterfaceProtocol field specifies the transport protocol
00 control/Bulk/Interrupt (CBI) with break of completion for FFD only
01 CBI without interruption of completion for the FDD only
transport in bulk only 50 h, including primingI don't know if the USB controller must imitate the FDD Protocol.
Any ideas?
Hello
You cannot boot from the USB key.
The BIOS of the laptop does not support something like that.
Laptop factory supports and use different BIOS versions. As far as I know on this laptop Toshiba BIOS was installed.To my knowledge this BIOS does not support booting from the USB key, but only the HDD, ODD, LAN or USB - FDD.
If you want to boot from USB FDD, you can create a bootable FDD floppy.
Windows operating system creates the boot floppy drive when you right click on the connected floppy drive and select format. Then simply choose the option create MS-DOS startup disk start. -

How to make a USB stick into a bootable image
I did a complete reinstall of windows xp to sp3
I'm doing a usb key that will start a linux system
usb in question has been used before on a windows vista and windows 7 and starting machine
Why can I not make an usb device bootable on windows xp machine work?
The problem is probably not the key USB but the BIOS that is loaded onto your computer motherboard. When Windows XP came out, USB was relatively new and had not reached the sophistication to address such opportunities that boot from USB. Things have changed a bit since then and newer machines have no problem using USB as a bootable media. Your only chance would probably be to see if there is an updated BIOS available for your machine. You can check your manufacturer's Web site or the Web site of the manufacturer of your motherboard to see if one is available. Do your homework and proceed with caution because an installation or an update of the BIOS failed can easily turn your computer into a boat anchor.
You can consider using a Linux boot CD instead of the USB key for this computer.
