Mach3 Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 10 Print Hello World 20 goto 10 First time caller, long time fan. I have unfortunately have an IPIBL-LA/Benicia-GL8E mother board and I would like to enable or find a work around for the lack of boot to usb functionality. I have not anything of use on the interwebz and would like to start doing some testing. Is there a work around to boot from a USB in this situation? Thanks!

Sparda Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 If a BIOS doesn't support booting from USB... the only way it can be added is with an update from the manufacturer, assuming it's not a hardware restriction. You can do some thing like make a boot disk (CD/Floppy) that attempts to boot from USB, but this may or may not work depending on the way USB is implemented on the motherboard.
