    Hi Serg. This machine has no CD drive, I have to do everything with a usb drive. I have no option for CD. I tried making a bootable usb drive with Rufus (didn't work) and Unetbootin (didn't work).

    Sorry to be so noobish. Any idea how I can create a bootable usb from that ISO?

    Thanks

    Make a pure DOS bootable USB stick with Rufus (FAT32), unpack .iso to the stick (do not overwrite command.com file), boot to DOS and run lcreflsh.bat

    I am in the same boat as you are except I am able to enter into the bios setup utility that is the only difference. I was wondering if you were able to get the phoenix crisdisk to work for you? Any help would be wonderful.

    Thank you
