Greetings All,
This is my second post in this forum. The first involved a failed ASUS TUF X570 mobo build that went orange dram after I tried installing windows 10.
Tonight I am going to try again with my second ASUS TUF X570 Mobo. My questions relate to getting Windows 10 to install via a USB. I went to the windows site and created the USB using their tool to install windows 10 onto a new PC.
I have an older case that has a USB 2.0 connection in the front. It actually has two usb ports but they feed into a single cord with a single connector that I can connect to the X570 mobo. On my failed attempt with mobo #1 I did get to the bios and went to the boot menu. It showed the Corsair NVME and had two listings for the USB. One said something like USB 2.0 generic and the other said USB 2.0 partitioned. I selected generic. That may or may not have caused a problem.
I have researched this and it appears that booting from a USB is not as simple as it seems. I have read among other things that in BIOS you need to make sure you are set to ACHI. I also read in another article that your USB boot choice should offer a UEFI USB boot option. Then I read something about you need to make sure you have some setting that allows for "legacy" 2.0 USBs.
Assuming I get the new mobo to boot tonight and can get into the bios screen. What, if anything should I look for, as far as settings to be able to load windows 10 onto my NVME from my front USB 2.0 port. Is it necessary to manipulate the boot menu order? After my first try I'm reluctant to do anything with that. I always thought that the boot order was just that - it would go through each drive in order until it found something bootable.
The mobo itself has several USB ports on the back. Is it possible to use those as bootable points? I've watched the videos on how easy it is to load windows 10 via the USB. Yet, as I've said, when I've researched problems loading windows 10 a lot of stuff comes up regarding settings etc.
Looking for some good solid advise or a link that provides a solid method of loading windows 10 via USB.
I appreciate the help in advance.
Thanks,
Fredisius
