Hello, I created a bootable USB key with Windows XP, but I can't get my computer to start from it; it goes directly to the already installed Windows. My PC is an HP Pavilion dv7 3010sf. Thank you.
Configuration: MacBook Pro 2016 15 inches
Touch Bar and Touch ID
Intel Core i7 quad-core processor at 2.9 GHz (Turbo Boost up to 3.8 GHz)
16 GB of memory at 2,133 MHz
1 TB PCIe SSD
Radeon Pro 460 with 4 GB of memory
Four Thunderbolt 3 ports
Backlit keyboard

Hello,
1° Have you changed the "Boot Device" in your BIOS to boot from the USB key before the PC's hard drive?
2° How did you create your USB key… what did you use to make your bootable key?
3° Where does your Windows XP file come from...? Is it an ISO file?
