Following Lenovo support article HT076906 (How to enter Setup Utility (F1) or Boot Menu (F12) on a Microsoft Windows 8/8.1 preloaded PC), I tried various combinations to reboot the machine (including Shift+Shutdown for a full shutdown and Shift+Restart for Windows boot options) but nothing was helping to boot from USB. I checked the BIOS ( F1 at boot) and USB boot was enabled. ISO file using Rufus but our family PC (a Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 15) didn’t want to boot from it.įirst of all, I had to work out the boot menu key combination ( F12) but, even then, the boot menu only wanted to boot from the network, or from the local hard drive. I’d prepared a USB flash drive from the Windows 10. Because I’d already downloaded the media I thought I could skip bringing almost 3GB down over my ADSL line and boot from USB but we had a little trouble along the way…

Overnight, both the Windows 8.1 PCs in our house decided that Windows 10 was ready (I clearly need to be more patient) but my 10 year-old son wanted to perform the upgrade (he’s a trainee geek) so, I waited for him to come home tonight before we tried it out. Unfortunately, things didn’t turn out to be quite that simple. Yesterday, I wrote about not having to wait for Windows 10 to be advertised to my PCs and downloading the software directly instead.
