How to create a UEFI bootable CD or DVD

Hi folks

I am working for the next 3 days so will not get back to this until Thursday.

Thanks for your input, I will work on it and get back to you.

Thanks

Daniel

Download latest iso from MS, mount as a drive, select all files and copy to DVD. Iso is dual purpose and can run on legacy bios or EUFI.

Hi
if this works, it seems that it only takes care of OS Install disks, I have many other boot disk requirements, Kasp 10, Hirem boot disk and others.
Cheers

I might be wrong, because it's been a long time, but I believe that in order for a DVD to be bootable in legacy BIOS mode it has to have a special boot sector on it that does not get there when you just copy files to the DVD. You have to burn the actual image from the ISO file, not just the files and folders in the ISO file. Again, I could be wrong.

Even if I am wrong, I don't really see much advantage to mounting the ISO file and then copying all the files and folders to the DVD instead of just right clicking on the ISO file and selecting the burn image option (or using a simple image burning program like IMGBurn).

Hi

I apologise for giving the impression that I only wanted to boot to OS Install disks, I have four PC's in the house but only one has UEFI and that has W10 installed already, I need to boot to other disks, I have about 7 ISO's that I need UEFI bootable disks for.

Also I have no manual for the PC with the UEFI, only a quick start guide and the "help line" people know nothing about the hardware or the software, when I asked for help setting up the boot sequence properly because Boot to DVD first was not working they asked my why I wanted to boot to DVD I told them, as an example, my backup software worked from a bootable DVD, so they sent me details on how to backup the PC which by the way was useless, it only backed up the Users folder.

Also, I do not know for sure how to get to the "boot menu", I have tried all the suggested ones, Esc, F2, F8, F11, and all the other F keys,
the F11 does take me to a menu that looks like the boot menu but the only option is the "Windows MBR" startup.

Also, I need this for DVD's not USB keys, a DVD costs 50c and a USB costs and least $15.00

I hope that clarifies things

Cheers

F11 is the right key. The Windows MBR is the only boot option being found.
