  1. Windows 11 will only boot with a USB device connected


    I recently built a new system and installed a copy of Apple i-DOS aka windows 11. Specifically, I installed windows 10 via usb and then immediately upgraded because installing the latest version directly would not work. The only way this system will boot is if there is a usb device connected to the same port that the install media was plugged into. If there is not one connected, it will reach the motherboard splash screen and then reboot until it reaches the automatic repair interface with no error code. If one is connected, it boots right to the desktop. NOTE: the usb device does not

  2. No Boot/Post when usb device is connected

    I finally got my board back from RMA. They said they had to flash the BIOS to the latest one. I'm not sure how they did it. Most likely they changed the BIOS chip.

    My problem now is a few days after plugging the FX-8320, the PC wont post or boot when a USB device is connected even a mouse. I've tried turning off any Legacy USB support. I also made sure that the the boot priority is the HDD and no other devices are selected.

    BTW, I can't see anything when it posts as my display, for some sort of reason won't show the POSTS screen.

    I'm stumped. Again... *Bang Head :banghead:

    Thank you.

    Installing windows off of a USB stick

    Step By Step from vista:
    From admin cmd prompt

    1. diskpart
    1a. list disk
    2. select disk 1 (replace 1 with your usb drive)
    3. clean
    4. create partition primary
    5. select partition 1 (replace 1 with your usb drive)
    6. active
    7. format fs=fat32
    8. assign
    9. exit

    Copy Windows Vista's DVD ROM content to the Flash Drive

    xcopy d:\*.* /s/e/f e:\ (d being your vista cd and e being your usb stick)

    And that's it, boot off your usb disk

    Windows 11 will only boot with a USB device connected

    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!
