    I recently got my new G53jw 3d edition notebook. I wanted to install my Windows 7 ultimate edition to my notebook but unfortunately i could not be able to boot it from usb disc. I tried nearly every way and option on bios (by the way my bios version is 2.10) for boot but it just did not boot from usb, than i tried my windows dvd disc but again it did not boot from there too, it kept saying there is no bootable disc please insert a bootoble disc and press any key or restart your computer.

    The funny thing is both the dvd and usb drive are booting without any hesitation in my old notebook (Acer 5920G). Another funny thing is I burned backup discs of Asus notebook and when i try to boot asus backup dvd from my blueray drive, it boots without any problem too. So i really have no idea what the heck is the problem.

    Can anyone please help me? Any ideas? Any solutions? :confused:

    Did you pressed ESC on POST-Screen? You will see a Boot-From-Menu.

    Did you try the Esc -> Select device to boot? Also, the USB Flash Drives need to be partition by bootsect.exe included in Windows 7 ISO to be able to boot Windows 7 from USB. If you boot from CD, please download from Microsoft so that the ISOs are indeed bootable (it is different from USB as not every ISO will be bootable by default even with autoexec.bat), it must be specifically formated to boot via CD. You must've downloaded some pseudo edited version uploaded by some user.
