Hello to all,
Ive been having a problem with my USB key freezing on boot...doesnt go past bios detection.
-Many people have had problems with their computers freezing on boot
when they leave their usb drives plugged in,
-After some time researching the topic, It has come to my attention that the problem lies in the way that some bios detects usb devices.
-My Usb is being detected as "USB hard drive" instead of Usb key or device
which causes the system to hang on boot
Specs: 2gb Sandisk Cruzer , Hp pavillion dv2000t, phoenix bios
I have tried to use qparted and fdisk, to delete all partitions and create one bootable 95 fat32 partition. No success, still hangs
I tried to reduce the size of the partition to below 1gb and left the rest unpartitioned. No success
is there a hidden sector in the usb key where i can edit "USB hard drive" to be displayed on the bios as usb device or key?????????
Thank you for your support.
