 CREATING BOOTABLE DEVICE
USING 3rd PARTY APPLICATION
 Objectives:
▪ Identify the different bootable devices

▪ Create USB installation media from bootable

ISOs (Windows) using the 3rd party software
(RUFUS)

▪ develop awareness on how to determine the

storage partitioning (GPT or MBR) and
distinguish between UEFI and Legacy BIOS in a
computer system before creating a USB
installation
 Activities:

Ponder this question:

1. What is the primary subject matter depicted in the picture?

2. What are the intended uses of the items shown?

3. What category of memory do these devices belong to, and is

the data stored on them considered permanent?
4. Is it possible to install system software, such as an operating
system (OS), on these devices?
5. Which of the provided devices is more suitable for you when
creating a bootable device?
Bootable Disc or Drive

• A piece of hardware that can

read or contains the files
required for a computer to
start. For example, a hard
drive, a floppy disk drive, a
CD-ROM drive, a DVD drive,
and a USB jump drive are
considered bootable devices.
Third Party Software
• a third-party program is any
software, plug-in, or mod that is not
included with a software program. For
example, Norton Anti-Virus is a third-party
program to Microsoft Windows since it is
not included with Windows.
• Third party software refers
to programs that are developed by
companies other than the company that
developed the computer's operating
system.(not integrated)

• ISO image is a term commonly
associated
with CD and DVDburning.
• An ISO image (or .ISO file) is a
computer file that is an exact copy
of an existing file system.

 Types of Bootable Devices
• Hard disk drive
• CD/DVD drive
• USB jump drive
• External hard drives
• SD Card
(Secure Digital Card)
 Hard disk drive
• A hard disk drive (sometimes
abbreviated as hard drive, HD,
or HDD) is a non-volatile data storage
device.

CD/DVD drive
An optical disc drive that reads and writes all common
CD and DVD formats. All modern optical drives that
come with personal computers are CD/DVD drives.
USB Flash drive
• Flash drives are an easy way
to store and transfer information between
computers and range in sizes from 2 GB to
1 TB.

External Hard Drive

An external drive is just a hard drive (HDD)
or solid-state drive (SSD) that is connected
to a computer on the outside rather than
on the inside.
SD Card (Secure Digital Card)
An SD Card (Secure Digital Card) is an ultra
small flash memory card designed to provide
high-capacity memory in a small size. SD cards
are used in many small portable devices.
 CREATE UEFI BOOTABLE USB OF WINDOWS 10

• Unified Extensible Firmware Interface

(UEFI) is a specification for a software
program that connects a computer's
firmware to its operating system (OS).
• It uses a modular architecture,
allowing firmware updates to be
applied more easily and enabling the
development of additional features
like networking capabilities and
graphical user interfaces (GUIs).
 CREATE UEFI BOOTABLE USB OF WINDOWS 10

• BIOS is an older firmware interface that has

been a standard for many years.
• It typically operates in 16-bit real mode and
is limited in terms of memory support, often
constrained to 2.2 TB.
• BIOS doesn't have built-in support for
Secure Boot, which can make it more
susceptible to certain types of malware
attacks during the boot process.
CREATE UEFI BOOTABLE USB OF WINDOWS 10
 To determine whether your computer system
utilizes Legacy BIOS or UEFI, follow these steps

Step 1. Launch the "RUN"

command.
 To determine whether your computer system
utilizes Legacy BIOS or UEFI, follow these steps

Step 2. In the Run dialog box,

input "msinfo32" and press
Enter.
3. In the System Information
dialog box, locate and
navigate to the BIOS mode.
how to determine the storage partitioning (GPT
or MBR)
It is important to know whether the system is using
GPT (GUID Partition Table) or MBR (Master Boot
Record) partitioning when installing an operating
system.
knowing whether your system uses GPT or MBR is
essential for ensuring a successful and compatible
installation of the operating system, taking into
account factors such as boot mode, partition size,
security features, and overall system compatibility.
• If a computer does not recognize a bootable flash drive, the
issue may be related to the mismatch between the
partitioning scheme of the flash drive and the requirements of
the system.
• For example, if the computer is configured to use GPT
partitioning and the flash drive is set up with an MBR
partitioning scheme (or vice versa), the system may not
recognize the flash drive as a bootable device.
• Ensuring compatibility between the partitioning scheme of
the flash drive and the system's requirements is crucial for a
successful recognition and booting process..
 Determine the
storage partitioning
(GPT or MBR) present
on your computer.
 how to determine the storage partitioning (GPT
or MBR)

Step 1. Go to file explorer

Step 2. Right-click on the "This
PC" icon and opt for
"Manage."
 Step 3. In the Manage
dialog box, navigate to
"Disk Management."
Step 4. Right-click on
the desired drive.

Step 5. Select
"Properties."
 Step 6. Go to the
"Volume" tab.

Identify the “partition

style” in the displayed
information.

Step 1. Go to file explorer

• Performance Objective:
• Create USB installation media from bootable
ISOs (Windows) using the 3rd party software
(RUFUS)
• Duration: 20 minutes
• Requirements: PC, Flash Drive
1: Use the software tools,
that you have
downloaded.(Rufus)

2: Connect your 8GB+ USB

drive to your PC. Be sure to
backup all data from your
USB drive.
3: Run the 0. Click the Yes
button when you see the UAC
prompt to launch the tool.

4: Under the Device section,

select the USB drive that you
want to make bootable

5: Click the “SELECT” button

and search for ISO file in your
computer
6: Select MBR partition
scheme for BIOS or UEFI-
CSM, or GPT partition
scheme for UEFI computer
depending the type of
partition type on your PC.
7: on the volume label you may change
it to your desired name

8: Next, select the File system as FAT32

(default) as it supports both BIOS and
UEFI. But if you’re sure that your PC
doesn’t support UEFI, you can choose
NTFS for a faster installation.
.
• Step 9: Finally, click the
Start button, click the
OK button when you
see the warning dialog
to continue its job.
• Once Rufus completes
its job, you’ll see the
“READY”message.
That’s it!
