linux/ubcd diagnostic dvd not seen as bootable, play movies okay
I have a SATA hdd in a USB external case. I can read the files, but its acting flaky in the laptop I took it out of. The hardware in the laptop appears okay, battery fully charged, adapter works fine.
I have a Linux Format/UBCD dvd in my Win 10 dvd player, but the computer doesn't see it as bootable. When I click on the files in the dvd, I get the 'select an app to run this' type message.
I have tried making the dvd drive the first boot item, and the computer skips it and goes to the hdd in the Win 10 computer.
So my problem is getting the dvd to be seen as bootable. I can play my music and movie dvds just fine. I want to run some diagnostics on the hdd in the external case.
Thanks !
