Boot from USB without the option in BIOS

Hello,

My problem is the following: I have the Windows 7 CD, but the CD/DVD drive on my laptop is no longer working...

So, I started the installation via a bootable USB stick that I created thanks to your tutorial here: http://www.commentcamarche.net/faq/21013-windows-creer-une-cle-usb-d-installation (by the way, thank you :p)

But since I have bad luck, my laptop is too old and the USB boot option is not available :/

Is there a solution to boot from it anyway?

If not, what should I do?

Thanks in advance and have a great day.

Configuration: Windows 7 / Firefox 11.0

Hi Kiyo,

if you don't have the option to boot from a USB stick
to know if it will accept Windows 7
hardware question

also a combo can be changed

see you later
