Windows 8 does not have a USB boot option

QuestionHow can I boot my Windows 8 laptop from a USB device? I created a recovery disk on a USB thumb drive.
So far I have:
Entered into the UEFI (BIOS) and set USB to boot first.
Disabled secure boot.
I tried to reboot using the general setup options for startup in the windows settings page. I choose boot from USB through the UEFI, but got an error message that system does not have a USB boot option.
To confirm I also created a bootable DVD with an ISO burner, but my laptop cannot detect a DVD boot option either.
I assumed that the firmware of the UEFI for this computer allowed a bootable USB but in practice I cannot seem to get this work.
AnswerTo assist with not being able to boot from a USB device on a Windows 8 laptop, perform the following:
Plug in USB bootable device.
Hold down F12 when restarting and access UEFI menu (option is below drive list). If system is set to fast boot, CLICK HERE for instructions on entering the UEFI.
Go to UEFI and make USB "1st boot".
Disable secure boot.
Go to the "Advance" Tab, select "System".
Change boot order from UEFI to CSM.
Save changes and exit (F10).
Computer will restart and boot from USB drive.
When finished go back into the UEFI and set defaults then save changes and exit (F10). Windows 8 will reboot normally next reboot.

Done that, only choices are "Set up Firefox to Sync" & "Pair a Device". No ''UNLINK THIS DEVICE". Your turn.

  • Error 22: Window does not have a constructor.

    Hi
    I am getting the following error message when I try to run scripts in PSE11, including the PSE scripts like PhotoMerge. I have tried reseting my preferences, rebooting my mac, rebuilding the db3 file, and reinstalling the action. None have worked. These actions did work before. Does anyone have any experience or advice to offer on this one please? Thanks, Jo
    "Error 22: Window does not have a constructor.
    Line: 30
    -> var dlgwin = new Window('dialog', 'Supply Tracker',);
    This arises when running the CDW Supply Tracker script, which was working fine.
    thanks in advance, Jo

    I seem to have fixed this by deleting the preferences.  At first holding cmd-opt-shift whilst starting PSE editor was not giving me the delete preferences option, but I found there was a sneaky version of PSE editor running and hiding on my mac, and once I forced it to quit, and restarted the Mac, I was able to use the above way of deleting the preferences. 

  • Script error: Window does not have a constructor: 324

    File-script-image processor then a script error: Window does not have a constructor:324
    trying to run a batch to resize photos and this happens everytime.  Same thing is said in all options under script.

    photoshop cs6 extended running on windows 7 home edition.
    i wanted to resize images, so i opened photoshop clicked file-selected scripts-selected image processor.
    every video i have seen to resize a few images says this is how you do it, then input some data. and you resize the images.
    But after i select image processor i get an error. 
    Script Alert: "Something major has happened and I can't continue.  Would you like to see more information?"
    I select yes
    Script Alert: "ReferenceErorr: Window does not have a constructor:324"
    If I select scripts event manager, it says the same thing
    If I select load files into stacks it says "Error 22, Window does not have constructor.  Line 388 var w= new window (res)
    If I select statistics I get the same error message.
    So nothing under scripts works.

  • Windows does not have a constructor: 244 error message

    I'm using CS6 for the first time to process some RAW files using the Photoshop Automate>Fit Image script. When I tried opening one RAW image into Photoshop to create an action I got the following error message:
    "ReferenceError: Windows does not have a constructor: 224"
    Never seen that in all my years of using Photoshop. What's causing this and how do I fix it?

    No older versions installed.
    I was however able to do the following:
    From Bridge I ran Photoshop>Batch. In that menu I selected an action I created in a previous version of PS that included the Fit Image script. I clicked ok and everything ran perfectly. The problem is I can't run Fit Image directly from Photoshop using conventional methods.
    As for my system info, I am running the following:
    Windows 7
    Quad core i7-3610QM @ 2.3GHz
    8GB of RAM
    nVIDIA GeForce 650M - 2GB
    750GB HD
    Could there be any other troubleshooting solution besides running reinstall? I want to exhaust all efforts before going down that path.
    Thanks.

  • Aerender error: "Unable to execute script at line 95. Window does not have a constructor"

    A BG Renderer user is getting this error when running aerender version 10.5.1x2:
    "Unable to execute script at line 95. Window does not have a constructor"
    The render proceeds but the process never completes which is preventing the rest of the BG Renderer notifications from triggering.  Any idea what this error means and how to fix it?
    Thanks,
    Lloyd

    I guess we'll have to wait for Adobe to answer what could be causing the transmission to drop on Line 95. Todd's out of the office for a month or two, but maybe someone else can shed some light.

  • PSCS5 Error 22: Window does not have a constructor.

    I am having a problem running scripts in PS CS5.
    When I try to run the load files into stack script, which works fine on CS5 on my laptop running Windows 7 64bit.n (i7 Processor, 4gb Ram)
    I am running the same operating system on my main pc (i7 Processor 6gb ram), and am using the 32bit version of PSCS5.
    For some reason however I get the following error when trying to run the load files into stack script.
    Error 22: Window does not have a constructor.
    Line.388
    ->         var w = new Window(res);
    I have tried trashing my preferences and reinstalling photoshop but neither has worked.
    Any suggestions on how to fix would be welcome.

  • CS5 - Error 22:Window does not have a constructor

    I've been experimenting with some old sccripts on the Photoshop CS5 pre-release and they seem to work fine except any that have a user interface.Scripts that run fine on CS2, CS3 and CS4 throw a "Error 22:Window does not have a constructor" error message. I was wondering if anyone else had noticed this and if they were aware of any changes as regards to scripting with CS5 and also how to correct the issue.

    Dear All,
    I have been bothered by this same  Photoshop error 22 when trying to use the Photomerge feature or any  other of the Automate features in CS5.
    My computer is a  Windows 7 32bit machine but this should definitely apply to Windows  64bit machines and possibly the same logic may apply to Mac but I do not  know.
    I didnt find a permanent solution but I did find  a temporary fix which will at least allow you to use the function for  one opening of the program however if you close and reopen photoshop the  problem returns.
    Temporary Fix Instructions:
    1.  Locate the file "Adobe Photoshop CS5 Prefs.psp" on your computer and delete it or move it elsewhere.  (I assume by  doing this you may lose *** of your photoshop preferences but it will  allow you to use photomerge and HDR so you choose)
    2. On Windows this file can be found in the User folder under C:\**USER NAME**\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Adobe Photoshop CS5 Settings\ (Replace **USER NAME** with the Windows 7 account user name)
    3.  After deleting this file or temporarily moving it out of that folder  you can then open Photoshop CS5 and use the Photomerge feature as much  as you'd like.
    4. As soon as you close Photoshop CS5 the program automatically makes a new Adobe Photoshop CS5 Prefs.psp file so when you try to reopen the program it will not work again.
    I  hope this may be helpful to some people and I hope that Adobe can fix  this issue, I have not and dont plan on submitting this as a bug report  to Adobe, being that I do not personally own the program (still in 30  day trial) but anyone who would like to, please feel free to do so.

  • Error 22: Window does not have a constructor. when opening photomerge . panorama ??????

    Whats up???   Error 22: Window does not have a constructor. when i select photomerge / panorama on my imac.    ( elements 11)

    Try resetting the PSE preferences by
       1. Close Elements.
       2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor.
       3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
    One of the similar threads is found here http://forums.adobe.com/thread/622755 which is for Photoshop but should work for PSE as well.

    To update the iOS to 5.1.1 from iOS version end prior to iOS 5 you must connect the iPad to a computer running iTunes.
    Start iTunes on the computer, connect the iPad, select the iPad in iTunes on the computer. If you are not automatically prompted to update select the General or Summary tab and then click on Check for Updates.
