Hello, i have an packard bell M5250 with bios from Insyde.
I bought the laptop in 2004.
It doesn't support booting up from an usb. Is there a way to add usb-booting?
I wanna be able to start linux (ubuntu 9.04) from an usb.
Hope to hear!
thnx in advanced.
Add usb-boot support to insyde bios
Hello people!
Same question here.
My laptop is compaq presario 3015us.
Bios is Insyde version F.37 .
Last bios update is sp24481.exe (google it)
I wonder if there is the possibility to unlock an option that allows me to boot from usb.
Thank you

I have checked and both of you are out of luck, not even seeing a commercial upgrade for these dinosaurs that might enable USB booting. There may be an alternative though:

Let me know if this works for you.
