Hi, I have an HP ElitePad 1000 G2 tablet. One day, I used Secure Erase in the BIOS, but when I tried to boot from the SD card (with Windows 8.1 and drivers), it wouldn't boot from the SD card. I disabled Secure Boot, but that didn't change anything. When I go to the "Boot Options" category, there are no devices. I haven't found a solution, so could you please help me? P.S. I don't have a docking station or USB adapter for my tablet.

You erased the data from the tablet's built in storage, so now the tablet has no operating system.

 

I really do not understand the logic in what you are doing.  I hope that you are aware that SD media cards are painfully slow

 

What method did you use to create the Windows 9.1 media card?

 

Does the media card have a boot flag and a drive letter?

If it does not, it will not be visible to the BIOS.
