[QUOTE="davemurgtroyd, post: 1052815, member: 319227"] USB not really an option at present - only 2 USB ports and needed for WiFi dongle and his digitl cameras (used a lot) andas this is only a temporary fix for him to decide between Windows or Linux a LiveDVD (Ultimate Mint LiveDVD with Libre Office, Firefox and many other useful programs) - I will be fitting HDD and re-installing Windows 7 on it so DVD will give him easy dual boot option to try them out (and perhaps keep both). Besides that I cannot see option in BIOS to boot from USB. [/QUOTE]
