Unable to Boot W10 Installation from USB on Gigabyte GA-H61M-S2-B3: BIOS & Alternative Options

Hello, I have Windows 10 on a USB flash drive, but I cannot force the computer to start the installation in any way. In bios, I changed the order in the first place is USB-HDD and despite this, the old system turns on. When I enter the boot menu and choose USB-HDD, the repair starts, after a short while I write that nothing has been done and sends me to turn off the computer or to start the system. Model - Gigabyte GA-H61M-S2-B3. Pictures below:

Edit: I was able to turn on by entering the pendrive and in setup.exe but it imposes the home version in advance, but I would like a different one and I know that through the bios it was possible to choose ...

I understand that since there is a problem and Windows "crashed", it wants to fix itself automatically and fails, you want to "format".

This is not done, the problem may be with the disk, for example.

It would be appropriate to attach the file mentioned in the photo ... \ SrtTrail.txt

Click on [Advanced options], enter the command prompt and copy it to the inserted flash drive:
copy C: \ Windows \ system32 \ LogFiles \ Srt \ SrtTrail.txt P: \ [enter]
(for the letter P:

Actually, it is not that it turned out, it was just cluttered for a long time and suddenly, as an update from Microsoft, the computer completely slowed down and some Windows things started to go crazy, that's why I want to do it all over again. Why does he want to repair? The answer is simple - the last update cannot install and the computer tries to install it over and over again, but something interferes and keeps withdrawing it and introduces it alternately, slowing down the computer and wasting my time trying to update ...

In bios, set:
SATA AHCI Mode to: AHCI
USB Legacy Function: Enabled
USB Storage Function: Enabled

If you have properly prepared the flash drive to be bootable, it should start working. Usually, after turning on the PC, it is enough to press F12 to activate BOOT or Escape, it depends on the bios settings. A list of available mediums will appear and you choose the name of your data medium.
In the attachment you have a program for creating an installation media that works under win 64bit.
Or this way

In such a situation, only reinstallation will help. Microsoft . You will have some updates out of your head, but of course, after installing the bank, more will be downloaded. Of course, remember to enter the activation key after installing, without it, some options will not be available, especially downloading updates.

I merged. RADU23

I have downloaded the version from microsoft from media creation tool to usb. The usual manual launch of the installer on a working system - it works as much as possible, but it imposes on me the home version that I do not want, and the change only exists with a regular installation, not on the system.

SATA AHCI Mode on: AHCI - I don't want to turn on the system, it just throws up at the final loading
USB Legacy Function: Enabled - all the time enabled
USB Storage Function: Enabled - all times enabled

The computer just looks like no matter what it starts up, it ignores it anyway and starts cd / rom right away.

Downloaded version 1709?

Add the \ sources \ ei.cfg file to the flash drive from:


or 'manually' with DISM install.

I have already added this ei.cfg file and at this point it continues to impose on me immediately when I click that I am ready, a confirmation of the 10 home win appears - so close and so far ...

You should have AHCI enabled when you install a new system on disk.
IDE does not support full disk speed, especially if the system is to be 64bit.

Be aware that installing a new clean system will force you to reformat the disk, or at least one of the partitions, unless there is only one, and thus you will lose data. But it's rather obvious and you know it rather!

I do not care about the data in any way, I also know what it means, because I need an efficient system even for now, and I still have no idea how to run the installer ...

You run this win10 installation from a working Win10 directly from a USB flash drive? Do you want to install Windows 10 on windows 10?

Some time ago, that's how I installed, on a working system on a pendrive I launched setup.exe and the installation went on, only that at that moment I didn't care about a specific version, unlike the current situation where the win 10 home option is imposed on the working system.

Summing up, to be clear from the Microsoft side, you downloaded Windows 10 Polish version 64bit and iso is called "Win10_1709_Polish_x64.iso" Using MediaCreationTool you have prepared an installation medium for a USB flash drive.

You put it in USB 2.0 you start the computer by pressing F12 in the bios with the AHCI set up right?

If so, what do you see after pressing F12 to choose? Can you send a photo?

And do you sometimes not have such an option somewhere in the bios settings: boot or UEFI or LEGACY securit? In the BIOS options of Boot setup

What is your current version on the disk installed? HOME ?

The current enterprise version, and as for what will happen after pressing f12, the bios will fire. I think you meant the boot menu - if so, the following options appear: cd / rom, hard disc, usb hdd, usb fdd, usb cdrom, usb zip and legacy lan. I put it in front of the back with the same success .. As for the option you gave, I can't actually find anything like that.

The bios fires up Delete with the bot F12 key, but I see in the first post that you have shown I missed it, so do not choose USB-HDD only + Hard Disk and then the name of your Pendrive. Good luck :)

Remember to change to AHCI in bios.

Changing to AHCI gives nothing for 1 time or shows an error for 10 seconds and the pc resets or fires an attempt to repair and then sends you back to restart and that's it.

You are supposed to have AHCI set up regardless of this. You are not interested in starting the current system, it is not important to you anymore. Focus on pressing F12 at startup when you see the bios logo and when you see one something Select + Hard Disk and there you should have your PENDRIVE and the current disk, since choosing USB-HDD does not bother you. If it is not, however, this flash drive is not bootable. You can also remove the disk completely, then there is no whip, it should start with the pendrive, as long as it is bootable.

Alternatively, what do you have to choose when you enter this option in bios?


Hard Disk Boot Priorities

None of this, choosing Hard disk, I have 2 options that I put below (the same as you ask above) in ahci loads and finally crashes an error, and to communicate with anyone here on the forum I have to go back to the idea that even more fire up this system. I guess I'll have to 'settle for' the truncated version ...

Download a normal win10 64bit and make the flash drive again.

Well, I thought that you were doing it alive quietly, I counted on the fact that you would write to us from your smartphone or laptop. You can always burn the installer DVD as long as you have DVD XDs

I don't have a phone at the moment, so I'm beating it, and time is running out - I'm trying to burn it on the CD.

And how do you choose bootable add in cards then what's going on?

I have not checked it, but despite the number of attempts, I am almost sure that it will be the same.

Since it does not go with the easier methods like [Next] or [Next], then you can 'manually', I do so often, for example, when special partitioning is needed, or something like booting from pendrives does not work, but WinRE starts, etc.

Quickly format (!) The volume under the letter IN: + 'manual' installation using DISM from * .wim file on the pendrive volume Q: (change the letters to 'your' based on the result of the first command and Index to the edition you want to install based on the third command):

echo list vol | diskpart
format IN: / FS: ntfs / V: Windows / Q
dism / Get-WimInfo / WimFile: Q: \ sources \ install.wim
dism / Apply-Image / ImageFile: Q: \ sources \ install.wim / Index: 7 / ApplyDir: IN: \

it is unlikely to be needed, but if you want to regenerate the boot, you should:
bcdboot IN: \ Windows / l pl-PL

And how do you choose bootable add in cards then what's going on?
And because you got into it Hard Disk Boot Priorities, if you are there, set the bootable add in cards first, probably F6 changes the position there should be written. and how do you change F10 or save the bios.

Generally, I used to play around switching those positions over and over again, but it didn't change anything.

edit, with this album it will not burn out, slightly damaged does not go to rip everything, moreover, who has CDs nowadays, I will have to be content with the trimmed version ...

You can buy a new DVD in the store, but it must have the appropriate capacity.

I do not know how it happened, but after turning it on in the morning, the installer fired on its own, and I did not set anything to boot or ahci. Well, thanks for your help, gentlemen.
