Question
I’m trying to install windows 7 on my computer.
I’ve downloaded the boot image from microsoft and burned it to a dvd
The dvd is not a valid boot device in my computer. I’ve tried the dvd on several computers, it works everywhere for boot.
I’ve also tried to use a usb stick version of the boot image, it also fails. I can boot from images since I can run windows xp at boot.
I don’t really know where to look now
edit *
I’ve also updated BIOS
Answer
I finally installed XP on the computer to burn the dvd from that dvd burner
then it booted (mostly) like a charm
no clue why the usb device never booted
