    Boot drive/path being corrupted after booting from USB


    I am working on a project involving booting from a USB boot drive. After successfully booting to the USB and using the OS installed, I shutdown the laptop. After full shutdown of the laptop and removal of the boot-able USB, I tried booting without the USB back to the original C: boot drive. I encountered error 0xc00000e and the laptop boot loops, unable to boot. This has happened on 2 different laptops and not on a desktop yet. For the laptops 1 was newer and the automatic recovery was able to fix the problem and booted again. The older laptop could not fix the boot drive. I tried fixing it wi

    Boot linux on USB drive

    it might just be that your bios doesn't support it, but it should anyway.

    make sure you go into the bios and make sure "boot other device" is enabled and try seeing if the usb is listed as an hdd.. as bootable flash drives are usually picked up as usb hdd's and check if your bios detects the flash drive.

    Booting from USB on x38 Motherboard, NOT?

    Typically the USB should be listed under the hard drive boot order. Set your "Boot Device Priority" to HDD first, then set the hard drive boot order to the USB stick first.

    Boot drive/path being corrupted after booting from USB

    Help with USB Boot Image

    I am trying to boot from my USB flash drive. I followed the instructions step for step that are in the article on this website. I downloaded the HP program and the USB Image zip file. I ran the HP flash program and pointed it to the folder where I unzipped the USB Image files to. I then copied all the files over to the USB memory stick as instructed. When I restart my computer and press F12 to go to the boot menu I have 3 options: SATA hard drive, CD-ROM drive, or USB Device. So I choose USB device and when it reads the USB memory stick all I get is the error "Non-system disk, replace and hit any key" Its like the USB memory is missing some system files or it doesnt have the master boot record or something. Somebody please HELP!!! I want to flash the bios in a new video card and I have to boot to DOS and I dont have a floppy drive and I have Win XP so a USB boot is probably the best option I have.
