my new motherboard came capable of booting up from a USB flash drive/cdrom/HDD etc...
my last one apparently also had it but it was kinda half ***** still so i left the floppy there.
so does the flash drive finally replacing floppy disk drive as far as features and being acessible and bootable in bios and dos?
i got a gigabyte GA-EP43-UD3L motherboard and treres an option in the boot menu for flashdrive.
i had to use the floppy to recover from my system not booting up into windows in the past and dont want to get stuck without any access to the system if something happends.
and also i made a customized image of my windows disk with latest graphic drivers and all the rest of them using NLITE.
but could not figure out how to make a bootable flashdrive.
i just extracted the image to flash drive and it wouldnt boot.
i went around google for a lil bit and found few different methods of doing it.
can anyoen suggest which method os the easiest and most reliable out of them?
