  1. Failure to boot from USB made with Microsoft


    Looking for some help.

    Dell Inspiron 20 - 3048 All In One

    Windows 10


    Initial issue: Computer stuck in "Automatic Repair" loop while attempting to boot.


    Went into the Boot Menu via F12

    Ran Diagnostics: Result: Error 2000-0142 "Hard Drive 0 - DST Short Test** Fail


    Did some research, this led me to create on another laptop a USB drive to boot the system to continue troubleshooting. I downloaded and used the MS Media Creator tool located at:


    https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10


    This has not been successful.


    I attempted different BIOS settings to get USB drive to boot system,

    Settings include:

    Default - USB drive is listed as a UEFI option. Computer gets stuck on screen with two white arches in lower corners, a simple blue windows logo centered, and circling dots lower center.


    Then changed to settings found online:

    Disable Secure Boot

    Enable Legacy Boot

    This shows USB drive as a legacy option - still no boot. Screen gets stuck on black screen.


    At this point, I have ordered a replacement SSD drive.


    My questions:

    Any other BIOS settings to get boot drive to be successful?

    Once I install the new SSD, will the USB boot drive be the way to attempt to boot the computer?

    Can I assume that I will not need to purchase Windows 10? ie.... is the license still on the motherboard?


    I'd be happy to provide any info to assist.


    Thanks for any help you can provide!

    Jim

    USB boot for bios update

    Did the first step. It already doesn't work. Note the capacities and drive letters M:/N: The HP utility is about to format my raid-1 volume containing my 2 750gb drives. It thinks it's the usb stick. I can not select any other drives in the HP utility. My 512mb usb stick is U:.

    Any other suggestions?

    Boot Surface Laptop to USB - no Volume button

    Hello Jimmy, Failure to boot from USB made with Microsoft :)

    This doesn't list the "Surface Laptop", but you might give it a try to see.

    *Arrow Boot Microsoft Surface from a USB device

    Otherwise, you should be able to use OPTION ONE below to boot from the USB from advanced startup.

    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.
