How to Boot Asus Laptop from bootable USB & Boot Menu Key
Hello! Guys today I am exactly going to show you How to Boot Asus F550 Laptop from Windows Bootable USB Drive or Pendrive to Install Windows 7, 8, or 10. The New Asus laptop comes with pre-installed dos or windows 10, But if you want to reinstall a custom fresh Windows 10 Operating System or if you like to install older versions of Windows like 7 or 8.
The first thing you have to do some changes in the bios setup to enable the boot option to boot from USB or DVD and also you need to know, What is the Asus boot menu key as well as. In this article, I will show you exactly how to do such things. You can also install, Mac or Linux with the same process.
In default mode, you can’t be able to see the boot from USB or DVD option in the boot menu. That means you have to enter the bios setup and enable them, to enter the setup you have to open the boot menu first. The Asus boot menu key in this laptop is the ESC button which you have to press right after turning on your laptop by using the power button.
Follow my steps to go further, Benefits of custom OS, you can install fresh windows according to your desirable partition sizes. If you have a 750GB Hard or 1TB Drive, you can make C: Drive of 250GB and the rest of the space as a D: Drive. Let’s follow the below steps and boot the Asus laptop from USB.

Some of the keys on my Asus keyboard is working, I replaced the keyboard, for a wile I start getting the same problem, I think is windows, I enter bios the same problem. pled help me.
I think you need to change your internal keyboard, one thing you can do unplug the internal keyboard an plug an external USB keyboard to the laptop. You will see everything is running fine. If yes, then order a new keyboard.

Thx for your help
I’ve been using Ubuntu and Windows on my Asus laptop for 4 month, and both work fine.
You’re the man who made this possible, thank you so much!
I just want to share my own experience on configuration problems, which I came into and which are not covered in the article.
1. There are 2 modes an operating system can be installed in: BIOS (Legacy) and UEFI. You have to install both your OSes in the same mode! On Windows there is a way to lookup which one it is installed in. When loading Ubuntu from USB, you’re provided with both options; just choose the mode in which you have your Windows installation.
Note: If you load Ubuntu in the different mode, it’s not going to recognize your Windows installation.
2. Despite the fact Ubuntu DID recognize Windows, it did NOT suggest me to install itself alongside it. I had to do it manually: allocate a partition on the space shrinked for Ubuntu and tell it to make installation exactly on this partition. And here is one more thing: I couldn’t allocate more than 4 partitions on my drive (neither Windows Disk Manager not Ubuntu installer could do that), so I had to leave my Windows with 3 partitions in order to allocate one more for Ubuntu.
Hope these helps for someone facing the same issues.
very good thing
