    I made my computer un bootable


    So a few weeks back I purchased some memory and upgraded my PC to 196GB of RAM. The bios recognized the memory but windows only saw 120GB. I tried moving the DDR3 around rebooting. I eventually came to a thread that doomed me. So the thread basically had me go into msconfig advance options and change windows memory from 120880 to 196000 or check the use all memory. Regardless i made this change and now my computer won't start Windows 10. I am able to get to troubleshoot and advanced options but beyond that nothing. I have tried Startup repair and tried to but in safemode networking and without networking both don't boot. The only thing I have been able to access is the command line and i can get to the C:\ drive.

    Multi-bootable USB

    Hey guys from TPU, couldn't find any specific thread pertaining to the question asked on title. As mentioned, I'm trying to create a bootable USB, but with many specifics boots available.

    I've been trying to create one with multiple boot device including one that enables me to run Windows 10 directly on the USB Thumb Drive but to no avail.

    The list of bootable images i'm trying to create are

    1. Windows 10 (A full OS running from thumb drive)
    2. Windows 10 ISO (Bootable disk image for fresh install)
    3. MemTest86+

    Have tried YUMI or UUI from the website USB PenDrive Linux but as this is my first time, i don't know how am i screwing up or am doing it right.. Anyone got a rough idea on a step by step guide? Thanks!

    new upgraded windows 10 - how to make a bootable USB?


    Just about every language on the planet was in the list I saw. The steps listed in the link mirror the ones posted by Microsoft on their support page for the process.

    Personally, I just used the Media Creation tool and it made the bootable Flash drive with 3gbytes of Win10 on it no problem.
