Hello everyone,

I have an old Acer Aspire 1690 laptop that works very well. I know that we cannot boot from a USB on this laptop, but I would still like to know if there is any trick or way to start from USB because I have a live USB that I would like to test on this laptop.

Thank you in advance.

      Hello druid, and thanks for your reply, but I don't have a floppy on my laptop and for the CD, I also have an identical live CD so it doesn't help since I only want to test via USB, but very good tip, I'll keep it.

      If it's not too personal, what do you want to start on your USB key?
