It has no floppy or CD rom drive and only supports the slim hot swapable cd rom drives. I am wanting to upgrade to V 2. Here is a link to the 3 V 2. Please note that some thumb drives have had non-standard things done to them by the manufacturer, deep inside their sectors, so hunt around in your desk for old small ones and try a few before giving up.
I remember that SanDisk put out a limited number of USB drives that had some troubles due to a misunderstanding about W8 requirements. Old and low capacity is what you are looking for here There is advice to always have that thumb drive in place before you push the start button that is a "cold boot" , but as noted in the first post above I also have been able to use Replicated Setup from a restart. Always find a black USB2 port instead.
Thus, when I am building up workstations I always use PS2 keyboard and mouse. I'd say the PS2 mouse is less important for these rare cases than the PS2 keyboard. It is worth a try I think it basically is a matter of finding the right thumb drive that can be recognized by BIOS, but the tips above can help.
And, there is info in that first post above that is not here, so read and understand both. View solution in original post. I'd like to add two more tools to replicate the bios settings. The first one is repsetup. It said "Saving Configuration. It seems to have seen the USB drive, as it presented the option to write to it.
But then could not write to it after all. I'm not clear on the need to save the settings to a text file. It seems like a good idea to have the settings saved, and you memtioned the ability to try out setting that have worked for other users. But if it won't work, for whatever reason, is that a basis not to try a new faster CPU? Didn't find what you were looking for?
