Windows 10 rufus bootable usb

[yo.edy.4ever]

I want to reinstall Windows and i dont know which settings to change on Rufus. I downloaded the Windows 10 iso ( 4.37 GB ). My motherboard is Z68 Extreme3 Gen3, which "file system" and "partition scheme and target system type" should i choose?

have you tried using the media creation tool from microsofts website? this tool is the easiest way to load windows 10 on a USB drive

The download is too slow using the tool. I cant wait that much.

Z68 Extreme3 has - 64Mb AMI UEFI Legal BIOS with GUI support

I would use the UEFI installation and not the legacy installation.

You wrote, "which "file system" and "partition scheme and target system type" should i choose?". The default Rufus settings are likely the correct settings.

Honestly, I've found YUMI to be an easier tool to use.

What happens if I install windows with gpt and fat32 settings?

What happens if I install windows with gpt and fat32 settings?

if windows will allow you to install fat32 as the main file system you will run into many limitation with big files

you said the download is too slow. how did you get an ISO copy of windows 10 to begin with then? a windows CD? do you have a valid licence?
