Yo yet another problem here: S recently, I copied files XP on USB and all that stuff etc... It will start fine after changing the order of boot on USB but when it asks me which partition to install on, it will say "PARTITION1 - LGUSB (3742MB)"... that's all for me, he said, even after making a new partition called "Windows XP Pro"... any help would be appreciated and I thank you guys for help :) especially when I only just registered to MS Answers... Thank you again :)

-Program used to copy files from the installer:
WinToFlash (New Version, beta version)

Once you unpack, you will have your User Guide:
GUG_ACER_1.0_ALL_AOD257.PDF
As you can see, there are different ways to restore your Acer. Yes, one of them involves a USB key. Please indicate what method you use.
Note it is also a method where you would press Alt + F10 at startup (before Windows has the ability to load) to access the partition of the hard drive recovery.
Yet once, have backed up all your data?

  • 5.09 pheonix BIOS does support booting from a usb key? If not, is there an update that will?

    Presario SR5249UK

    Your system should boot from a bootable USB key, as long as you select in the BIOS or at the time of booting as a device to boot from. What is an update of the BIOS... version 5.23 corrects the display of the configuration Menu of the BIOS for SATA Port 2 and 3, CPU microcode updates and updates v115M for MXIC SPI AWDFLASH.

  • Satellite M40 - 244--> Boot from a USB

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite m40-244 with a DVD player which unfortunately is out of service.

    I would like to know if it is possible to boot from a USB key to reinstall Windows or Linux. In the BIOS there only HDD, floppy, CD-ROM, and LAN drive options.

    Does anyone know how to boot from a USB? I tried an external USB DVD drive, it does not work. I don't know if I'm doing the right way.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    As far as I know that of not possible because the M40 BIOS does not support this!
    As you mentioned in your ad; There is only one option for booting from the HARD drive, ODD, LAN and USB FDD (floppy)

  • Iconia W700P - need to access bluetooth keyboard during the boot UEFI or need to boot from a USB

    Solved a problem, now face two other:

    The W700P will now boot from a DVD recovery Acronis TI, but to select the restore function (then the specific restore backup), it requires an entry for a keyboard. The Bluetooth keyboard supplied with the W700P does not work during the boot sequence. I prefer not to go out and buy a USB keyboard, but it is perhaps the only option.

    Or-

    The W700P boot from a USB key can stick? I read that this is impossible, but in looking at the Acer store, that's all they offer as recovery media for the W700P. I made a bootable USB key, when I bought the computer first, but I can't seem to start. All I get is repeated boot Acer screens, maybe he's trying different options in the boot order. I tried to change the order, put a password for boot and secure boot off, but I still have the same question.

    Any ideas?

    Solved once and for the moment! I now have a USB hub, USB, USB and DVD USB mouse keyboard (powered externally). Throw all these things on the machine, I was able to boot into the Acronis Recovery DVD, go to the menu and reinstall a previous backup of Windows 8.1.

  • Satellite U400-10j - how to boot from a USB flash drive?

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite U400-10j.

    I have Ubuntu on my USB flash drive, now I want to boot from it.

    I can't find the option in the BIOS to boot from the Usb flash drive.

    Second, I noticed that the phone also has an internal memory card reader.
    I could load Ubuntu top then to start the memory stick as well?

    Your help will be very appreciated.
    Thank you.

    I think that it s not able to boot from a USB key on this laptop.
    The best way is to use a CD. There, you can start on this notebook and all other laptops.
    In the Internet there are many versions of CD of Ubuntu and other Linux systems.

    And as said Feliks, it s not able to boot from an SD card because it is not in the BIOS.

    where is the problem?

    Hello

    As far as I know it of not possible to boot from the USB key.
    Only you can boot from the drive from the external USB floppy drive or CD/DVD compatible external USB.
    I found in the user manual that the DVD-ROM (PA3246) drive is available as an external drive option and you can buy the car from the dealer of Toshiba.

  • Laptop Presario CQ62: SETTING THE BIOS TO BOOT FROM a USB STICK

    I need to set the BIOS to boot from a usb key. The options in the BIOS are
    BOOT CD-ROM
    Startup disk
    Internal network card

    And in the boot order:
    USB disk on key/USB hard drive
    USB CD/DVD ROM drive

    Portable hard drive

    USB floppy drive
    Internal CD/DVD drive

    ! Network adapter (but it says that the ability to start will be disabled if the device is marked with an exclamation point, which, in my case, it is)

    A question who should I set to boot from a usb flash drive which has the operating system that you want to install Windows?

    I tried boot F9 options, but it gives me two options:
    Portable hard drive
    CD/DVD drive.
    No drive Flash Drive or USB in the list options.

    Then he said: press F10 for BIOS Setup Options. That's why I'm trying to see what to implement as boot device in the BIOS boot options.

  • L512 cannot boot from a USB flash drive

    I just got a brand-new L512 (model 4444-CTO) and I am trying to boot from a USB key, but it does not work. I changed the boot order in the BIOS, I tried to use F12 to bring up the boot order (which does not have the listed USB option), I tried different USB ports and nothing works.

    One thing I noticed, is that on startup command BIOS screen, the entry is listed as: "-USB HDD. No other entries (including USB CDROM and USB FDD) signed a minus in front of them. USB is enabled. I've updated to the latest version of the BIOS.

    Anyone have an idea what might happen?

    And now, all of a sudden it works. The only difference I see is that I did a hard reboot instead of soft, but I thought I had already done that also. Well.

  • If I get the dvd of recovery to win s 7 of the manufacturer, what problems is I meet when I try to boot from a usb dvd player

    Separated from this thread.

    OK here is what I was asking.  If I get the dvd of recovery to win s 7 of the manufacturer, what problems I will get when I try to boot from a usb dvd player.  I worry because my computer is uefi firmware. should I disable secure boot, make sure the dvd usb drive first in the boot order.  What other bios setting I would be worried.

    You will get a facility better if you find the ISO to create such media as discussed in step 1 of the clean reinstall Windows 7 follow these steps to get the best possible installation.  You can even create flash media if that's easier for you.

    Regard to Recov disks that reinstall all the bloatware factory, Yes, you must disable Secure Boot in firmware that doesn't support UEFI to install Windows 7, and then start the media as a UEFI device.

    After installation, you can pick up some performance and optimize the installation by following Clean Up Factory Bloatware .

    You can also do a Clean install Windows 10 improvement using the Windows 7 product key, as this is explained in this link.   You can at any time change to Windows 7, even move back and forth until only is installed at the same time.

    Let us know if there are any questions and how it goes.

    Hello

    We will determine if your PC can not even boot from USB devices.  Plug the USB and turn on your PC.  When you get to the HP splash screen, then start typing the escape key to bring up a boot selection menu. If you do not see the USB device then your PC can't boot from a USB device.

    If your PC does support booting from a USB device and then read this MS post article.

    You always have the option to start Windows Defender from a CD or a DVD.

    Please don't feel not bad not respond sooner.  I'm always notified when one of the sons that I am working on has a new addition.

    I don't know if you have a specific reason to use the Linux distro you chose or if you consider a recommendation.  I used Ubuntu (prn. oo-boon-too) for several years as a dual boot with Windows.  Not only is it a great distribution, but there is a very good Forum.  Not as good as this , but very good.  The members of the Forum are very useful.  You can give it a thought.  I think they would get you to the top and run very fast.
