Hello All,

Need a help.

I am using Intel's DZ75ML-45K mother board.

From BIOS I have selected USB as first boot device but not able to boot.

I have G-parted in my USB.

Can any one help me with this, If I am missing anything ?

What are you trying to boot? A linux installer? A windows installer? A system checkup utiity?

I would recommend keeping it simple and getting the job done for now, don't partition the USB drive and allow a piece of software to format and then set your boot parameters on the device.
After it's all finished with just wipe it and use it for general storage again.
Unless you don't need it to boot at the moment and are just setting up a USB for storage and partitioned for also installing OS or running diagnostics/


Hi
If you have try the USB on other PC and it`s booting then you have to change some BIOS settings on you PC - if you have UEFI options disable them all
Some old mobos are not able to boot drom USB ....
 
so did you partition your USB device? if so maybe it has created a file structure that it cannot read as a bootable disk.

Also please double check the USB device has been correctly setup as a boot device.

What is it you want this USB device to do
 



I want to perform partitions, so I download G-parted and made USB with G-parted bootable using unetbootin-windows-585.
