Satellite A300 - Boot from USB Flash Drive
Is it possible to make my laptop boot USB flash drive?
I checked the BIOS settings, but could not find anything that allows the boot from USB.
> So after 40 hours there is no one who can answer this question 'complex'... strange forum.
Hay buddy, you have good sense of humor ;)
Do you really believe that someone to sit here and wait for your non-complex question? ;)
Anyway, this issue is so simple and you don't need to ask someone here. If you do not find option bootable BIOS to set USB peripheral device for me is logical that this will not work.
Please check the BIOS settings.

Can't boot from USB Flash Drive on Yoga 13
I had a USB bootable with linux on it live and I tested it it works on another computer but I can't get my Yoga to boot from it. I wet to settings-> General-> advanced startup and then I clicked on the option USB but the computer is restarted, he said that there is no bootable USB devices. 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.

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.

How in the H *! I can boot from a flash drive?
Could not remember pw for natchezjohn so registered under njohn391.
DOH! I'm a dummy or WHAT.
If you put a bootable on a USB flash drive and Press f9 to start upward it places that drive in a temporary position to be moved upward in the boot order.
DOH!

boot from the flash drive on a dimension 3000
XPSP3, completely up to date, 3000 dell dimension
I have booted from the flash drive once a long time ago and I have still now because my cd player is not good according to imgburn and dell did not buy, I looked. :)
The only question about it in my search for this forum was 10 years ago, and the op had no satisfaction.
I took action: drive startup laptop computer (dell), so that's good, will load files on the 3000 and then reach the point Windows starts up, and then I get a blue screen 07 b, any file in the list, just telling me to uninstall a driver or a controller, I have not installed one, :)
any ideas?

This problem has never been resolved. Tried to come back and do a downgrade to BIOS which list wouldn't even boot from a USB either.
Some older laptops can't boot USB so that few of them can (after BIOS update).

Envy Touchsmart Ultrabook - boot from Usb Flash or optical drive
I just this envy Touchsmart Ultrabook (14 inches) with 8 win and it works very well, but one thing that I can't make it work is to be able to boot from a USB stick or a cd usb player. This system doesn't have a built-in optical drive.
I changed the configuration Bios Boot UEFI for Legacy and also re arranged the boot order so the USB drives are before the internal hard drive. I also tried to change setting USB 3 auto... still not able to boot from a usb device.
Both the usb flash drive and cd drive to boot on my HP desktop and I recently tried the usb flash drive on a new laptop Lenovo comes with Win 8 and it worked.
I need to do so that I could run my backup - Acronis True Image software.
Any suggestions on what then try? Thank you.
Yours is a laptop very different mine - so this may not apply... but you can try what I posted here: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Other-Notebook-PC-Questions/bios/m-p/2260991

NB100 - How can I reinstall OS from USB flash drive
My laptop TOSHIBA NB 100 has no CD-DVD player.
Operating system is Windows XP Home SP2.Operating system won't start.
Laptop start not at all so I can't run any kind of test when I turn it on.
The thank you screen come on it says launch safe mode, the networking of safe mode, safe mode comand prompt or start windows normally. But no matter who I chose, that it does not start it only goes to Windows and looks like its starts but then shows the blue Windows screen & stays there.
So I want to reload Windows from my USB flash drive.
The BIOS boot sequence is the USB HDD - FDD - FD - CD memory.What are the steps for loading Windows USB flash drive?
If that does not work then I want to connect another laptop with Windows CD in the CD - DVD drive laptop.
Will this work? The laptop will use the Windows CD in the drive of the laptop to load the operating system?
How to make this connection?Hello
You usually have an external USB CD/DVD drive to boot from the Windows XP disc or the Toshiba recovery disc.
But there is a method that allows you to install Win XP using the 2 GB USB key.
This is possible because the NB100 BIOS supports booting from USB key.Pease check this Web page:
+ Installation of Windows XP using a USB Flash Drive.

Envy 13 d001ne: cannot install Windows 10 from usb flash drive
Summary of the problem:
The laptop SSD has a GPT format. I am trying to insall a Windows 10 ISO I have on it from a flash drive. Formatting a usb startup as TPG manually or using Rufus drive will not make the unit visible non-traditional mode. Formatting the drive in the MBR on the other hand I cannot install on a GPT disk.
I've tried everything. I disabled and enabled secure boot. I updated the BIOS to the latest revision F.35.

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?
Hi @HPlaptop51,.
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.
Let me know how it goes.

Qosmio F20-136 - boot from USB hard drive
Dear all,
Is it possible to activate the Qosmio F20-136 to boot from a second drive hard connected to one of the USB ports? I know you can press F2 during boot to get 4 different boot options, but this isn't one of them.
Thank you

EliteBook 840: unable to boot from usb flash
Hello:
I'm tempted to boot from USB drive to install a new version of Windows 7. When I press F9, I have only two startup options:
-Computer portable hard drive
-Computer laptop Ethernet
The USB boot option do not appear.
My BIOS Version is: 01.04 worm. M71 (24/02/2015)
Note: I tested my USB key installation in the other laptop and it works very well.
Thank you for your support.

Yes, I know Rufus. How I said, I tried my USB in another laptop (a HP ENVY m4 laptop) and work very well. The difference is that the HP ENVY gave me the option to boot from USB and the EliteBook does not.
I realized that, since the post, you did.
I suggested RUFUS and EFI create setup of windows due to the startup problem, that you have with the Elitebook 840.
It may be just what you need for this particular laptop.
If you want this to work, then you must be flexible and willing to solve the problems.

x 61 does not start from usb flash drive
I don't know that I did several times before, but for some reason any my x 61 does not allow me to boot to a usb flash drive, I use normally to install the operating system.
Any suggestions what might be wrong and what I could do about it?
I should mention that USB is enabled in the BIOS and usb flash drive install works on other computers.
Update seems to be an incompatibility with wintoflash, I used the Microsoft DVD/USB tool and it starts the flash player and finished the installation. Strangely the wintoflash installation worked fine in a HP dv3000.
Consider this resolved.
Wow I never saw your post until that earlier.
Situation is resolved in the first post
