Product: HP 250 G4
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 (64-bit)
Hello! I installed into my laptop (HP250 G4) a new SSD hard drive Kingston A400. I`m trying install Windows 8.But since yesterday I have not booted from a flash drive. There are in the BIOS:
Legacy support - <enable> ,
secure support - <disable>,
legacy boot order:
-usb diskette on key/usb hard disk (the first punkt).
What can I do to solve this problem?
Thanks for response!

Did you try selecting USB/Diskette -- as BIOS tends to have odd names for external devices.
