How can I install Windows from a USB flash drive on this netbook when F4 opens a flashing utility and ESC does not show the USB stick as a boot option?
F4 does not open the boot menu on this netbook; it starts the Easy Flash BIOS update utility, so use ESC, enter setup, and change the boot order so the USB stick is first [#15627227] If the USB drive does not appear, plug it in before powering on, check the Advanced/IDE Configuration and Boot tabs, and try disabling Fast BIOS Mode if the option exists [#15630164][#15636213] The USB installer should be formatted as FAT32 rather than NTFS [#15627530][#15634525] In the end, the problem was the flash drive itself: the BIOS could not see that particular stick, but it detected another USB drive without problems [#15637167] Easy Flash is the tool used to update the BIOS [#15637191]
I want to install Windows from a USB flash drive, but I do not know how to do it because I have never seen such a window (window No. 1) As for the second window, after selecting any option I am unable to proceed with the installation of the system.
In this netbook, the F4 invokes the flashing mechanism. Press ESC and Select enter setup, look for the order in which to boot the disks - switch to pendive first. Unless you connect the USB flash drive, USB STICK or USB harddisk appears on the list (the one under ESC)
from what I can see, I can't see Pena on the list, photo with advanced> onboard devices, maybe insert to another port, turn on the computer and the boot tab, Ev. take a photo of boot option 2,3.
I also noticed it with bios The BIOS does not see this penny pendrive. After connecting to another port it is the same and in Boot Option 2 and 3 it is the same as in Boot Option 1.
I know that there is also an option like this: You go to the Advanced tab and I am looking for the Fast BIOS MODE option (it does not have to be in this tab but it is described in the manunal) and set it to disabled.
Alternatively, check this flash drive on another computer, it will more precisely specify if it is the fault of a specific flash drive.
Anyway, is this the boot of this flash drive with some program?
Oki problem solved. I am ashamed to admit it, but the problem was on the side of the penny. I checked another flash drive and the bios can see it without a problem. Strange because some time ago I also uploaded wine from this pen, which now does not work and everything was fine. Thanks for your help, I didn't think it would be so trivial. Finally, I have one more question. junior84 wrote that the first photo is a flashing mechanism. What is it and what is it for?
I did not know When I wanted to install the system, this window popped up and I did not know how to get around it and now I know what and how So thanks again, gentlemen. Subject to be closed.

✨ The discussion revolves around issues accessing the boot menu on an Asus netbook, specifically related to loading Windows from a USB flash drive. The user initially encounters a flashing mechanism window when pressing the F4 key and a different window when pressing the ESC key. After several troubleshooting steps, including checking BIOS settings and USB configurations, it is determined that the problem was due to a faulty USB flash drive. The user successfully resolves the issue by using a different flash drive, which the BIOS recognizes. Additionally, the flashing mechanism is clarified as a BIOS update utility.
