can't make bootable usb thumb drive.

[Guest -keevill-]

I am trying to make a usb flash drive bootable for use with Acronis true

image. I have done it successfully with a small usb drive ( 1gb ) but I want

to do it on an 8gb drive so I can load the image file from Acronis onto the

flash drive also.

When I try to do it using the make bootable media ( same way as with the

successful smaller drive ) I get errro "no bootable partition in table"

Help someone.

Have you asked this in one of the Acronis forums at the Acronis site?

Not all thumb drives are bootable.

The two respondents were trying to be helpful. Their

responses were polite and to the point. There is no

need to snap at them.

If you don't like answers here, then I would suggest you don't ask

questions here. Windows wasn't designed to "boot off a thumb drive".

you think of using GOOGLE, you moron?
