    Booting from USB ?

    Guys,

    My mobo doesn't have USB-HDD boot option and it doesn't boot with my USB flash drive, how can I make it boot with USB flash drive ?
    I've made bootable flash drive already with rufus and unetbootln with puppy linux inside it...
    It has USB-FDD,USB-ZIP and USB-CDROM, I have tried three of 'em and doesn't work ?

    Any clues ? thanks

    I am not a software expert, but it would seem to me one would have to know what mobo you are using and what Bios it is using.

          Xiaomi router freezes at boot after re-capping
          by hinisa
          I'm using Xiaomi Router 4A gigabit edition as wireless repeater. It worked fine for 2 years or so, but last week, wireless started to disappear.

          When I unplug/replug the power, it was working fine for a day/half a day or so until it freezes again.

          After testing with different power supply adapters and concluding it wasn't the issue I finally opened the case and this was the situation:



          Anyway I proceed to clean up the mess and replace all caps but unfortunately it made the situation worse. Now router can't even boot, either it freezes during...

          by Ihandyrepair

          I got here a Sony 65X950G - I tried to find any repairs guides for this model but not many online

          here is the issue
          I have Sony and android logo. but then 4 led red flash lights front of the tv

          I have 3.3v ref. 12v reg then T con 12v when I press the power on button
          but then I get black screen and 4 red flash light at the front LED
          but I get 3 led flash on the LED driver board.

          I check that few X900F or C YouTube repairs, seems that if you have 4 led red flash it could be due of LED black light error
          so I tried...

          Nikon D800 camera - flash don’t work and capacitor don’t charge
          by corrize
          Hello, I'm stuck in troubleshooting…
          The flash system works like that : when the (mechanic) flash button is pressed, the flash mecanically pop up, and a circuit buck boost elevate 7v (batt) to 200-300v (?) for charging the big capacitor. And when the photo shoot button is pressed, the capacitor is discharged in the xeon light.

          In the D800, there is a first « power board » close to the battery. 2 wires (batt 7v) goes to another little « flash board ». I measured 7v, so ok.
          When I press the flash button, it's detected by the system, flash icon appear on LDC display....

          Aya A39FHD3901/2 - Vestel 17MB82 mainboard - LED blinking
          by KevinWysocki
          Hi there,

          My mother in law gave me an Aya TV, to take a look if I could do something to repair it.

          At startup, LED constantly blinks and no image is shown (even if I light the screen, broken backlight is not the problem), also +12V power rail is fine.

          After some research, it seems that NOR flash often fails on this mainboard, I have found the procedure to force flash upgrading with a USB key connected to mainboard USB port, pressing "OK" button on the remote and plugging the TV power cord.

          Flash upgrade didn't seem to work,...
