Trying To Boot From Flash Drive?

Nov 14, 2011

I have had 1000 issues, but i'm going to try and narrow it down. it seems like everytime I try to fix a computer, nothing ever just does what it is supposed to.At the moment I created a boot drive out of my flash drive with windows 7. I set it to boot first on my bios and it loads but hangs up on the first background screen after the windows logo and nothing happens.This info may help. I have two hard drives plugged in (IDE). the master is the one I want to do a clean install of windows. The slave drive already has windows and if I boot from it I can get to the desktop, but the problem is when I try to run the install from it and the computer restarts after the second step in the install for the main HD, it doesn't try to continue the install. Ive been working on this for a week.

Cant Boot From Flash Or DVD Drive

Jan 4, 2010

So I'm trying to format my PC.

I can't boot from my USB flash drive or my DVD.

I've tried using my:

Original Installation Disc which the PC is currently running (Vista x64 OEM) Windows 7 Technet Disc Fresh Ubuntu 9.1 (for testing purposes, also failed to boot)

I've tried:
multiple discs each with a fresh download and burned .iso changing boot priority going through the Boot Menu to select the USB-FDD or CD-ROM options

But the computer boots right through each of the medias.

I can see that my USB and DVD-rom drive are both lighting up.. during before the screen launches to the big Windows Vista logo screen.

Can anybody suggest what I should do?

How To Remove Boot Area From Flash Drive

Sep 8, 2011

I am using a few USB sticks for readyboost and always have them in my hub. One of them was temporarily used to create an Ubuntu Live stick, but now that I removed Ubuntu from it about 32Mb remain used and I assume there is some bootable info in it, as Windows 7 is no longer booting with this stick inserted. I have tried formatting but this does not help. Is there a way to wipe the USB stick clean and remove any boot sector info?

Flash Drive Not Recognized When Trying To Boot Win7

Oct 28, 2009

I've created the ISO file and moved it to the 4g drive using the AWESOME guide found here. However, the BIOS doesn't seem to recognize that the device is present. I've done some research and found that some usb drives aren't compatible with the BIOS? I made usb storage the only available boot option and nothing showed up.

However when I look at the drive while in Vista through my computer->G: It shows up as a windows system. I've also seen somewhere about enabling "Legacy usb"? I didn't find anything like that. Should I just got buy another flash drive and try again?

Setting Up Dual Boot On A Flash Drive

Dec 2, 2009

[Solved] Setting up Dual Boot on a flash drive that isn't always plugged in. I have windows 7 Home Premium installed on my desktop but I was hoping for a way to set up an installation of Windows XP on a 16GB flash drive that I have.

Not even thinking I just figured I would give it a try and I booted to my Windows XP disc and installed all of the files to the flash drive. Well needless to say it messed up my MBR and then wouldn't boot to the flash drive or to my internal hard drives anymore.

I was able to fix it by using the Windows 7 disc to repair startup but I still am not able to boot to Windows XP on the flash drive.

Is there any way to do this? I know I need to make some changes to the bootloader but I'm not sure exactly what to do. Is there a way to make it so it will automatically boot Windows 7 unless I put the flash drive in first and prompt it to as the computer starts up?

Internal Flash Reader - No Drive Letters (not A Hide Empty Drive)

Oct 8, 2012

Before I even go further: yes, the "hide empty drives" has been unchecked)I had to reinstall my machine and I was able to to see the drive letters for the internal flash card reader. However I think something might have gone wrong when I give my external HDD a drive letter that was held by one of the flash card reader).I wrote "I think" because I am not really sure since I never wanted to use the internal card reader till today so I never noticed there was an issue. Anyway, the internal card reader does not show up even when I insert a card in the reader. Basically nothing happens. I have uninstalled the "USB Mass storage device" and it gets installed without any issue but the problem is still there: I can't see the reader. the INTERNAL flash card reader has a USB slot and when I insert a EXTERNAL flash drive, the EXTERNAL flash drive shows up.

USB Flash Drive Is No Longer Seen As A Drive Or In Disc Management

Sep 26, 2012

I know, should have a backup, I was actually about to create a backup when the flash drive failed on me unfortunately. My newest backup is from about 5 days ago, so I'd prefer to be able to restore the current files.

I moved the drive over to another computer and tried to save a file but when I checked again the file was gone, like it never saved at all. Subsequently, after removing and plugging it back in the computer did not detect the drive (or see it in disc management). It does show up as a generic USB drive in the device manager, but there are no properties for it.

When I add it to a computer, it still adds drivers for it, but then nothing happens after that. It may also be a hardware problem, since the drive fell on the ground pretty hard a while back, but seemed to be working fine. There isn't an easy way to open it up and check.

I also tried using a few data recovery programs, but they couldn't detect the drive either.

Cannot Boot System From USB Flash Anymore

Jan 4, 2013

I used to create USB boots using the Program Ultra ISO and boot and install windows with my USB flash. But this time it isn't possible. When I choose to boot from USB, a black page comes, giving the message : Start booting from usb device ... but it remains on this page and nothing further happens. I tried the same flash on another system and it booted completely. It shows that the USB is written correctly and it must be something wrong with my system.

Encrypting A Flash Drive?

Apr 18, 2012

I have never needed to do this before, so I have no knowledge on the subject. I have a user who will be taking data home once a week, so I want to encrypt or at least password-protect her flash drive. It will contain regular, typical Office documents.Now, the tricky part is, she has a Dell PC running Windows 7 Pro in the office, and a Macbook laptop at home (not running any version of Windows). Does something exist, especially free, that will allow me protect her flash drive, and make it accessible to her on either computer?I need to do this for now, temporarily. I'm trying to convince my CEO that DropBox and others are just as safe and roughly the same process....but for now, I have to make the flash drive work.
