    I can't install Windows 8 X86 on UX31A not from external DVD, not from bootable USB.
    Windows 8 X64 OK.
    If anyone write here step-by-step how to install Windows 8 X86.
    Thanks.

    Hey nikrons,

    You will need to help us out a little by providing some details. That will help us troubleshoot just where the hangup is. :)

    General rule of thumb - from BIOS/UEFI setup:
    1. Enable CSM/Legacy BIOS (or disable UEFI boot)
    2. Disable Secure Boot
    3. Save changes and reboot

    Let us know what you've tried and what specifically seems to be stopping you. :)
