Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
Hello,
I need to install Windows10 on 9 HP EliteBook 840 G3 but when i press F9 my USB stick is not seen. Even if i have Legacy enabled and SecureBoot disabled and the USB device is first in the list i receive the following error messages:
"BootDevice Not Found
Please install an operating system on your hard disk.
Hard Disk - (3FO)"
I have tested the hard disk and is ok.
With the same USB stick i have installed windows on 12 HP Folio 9470m
I have manage to install with another stick Linux Mint so what should i do in order to install Windows?
