    Intalled New SDD, how do I make it my Bootable Drive? Please help!


    I bought a laptop with 32gb storage (a very bad, bad mistake). After a lot of reading on best solution to my no storage problem I installed a SATA SDD. I have cloned my hard drive to my D drive (SDD) but how do I make my laptop to use the D drive instead of my C drive for everything from this point on?


    Please help!

    :)

    third sata drive not bootable ?

    Exactly. On the where do you want to install Windows screen, it has the list of all 3 drives, but when I choose the new drive is when it says it cannot install because the drive is not a bootable drive. If I select one of the other drives with XP installed it doesn't give that message.

    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!
