Those don't show any error messages during your install process, I have no idea what problem you are trying to show us.

Again, error messages or descriptions of failure are required if you want us to help you.

What boot device are you selecting in the F12 menu? It needs to be USB-CDRom for your flash key that is connected to the bottom rear port.

I keep asking for more details, and you keep just saying it doesn't work. I'm sorry but I don't know how to help you.

In the Advanced BIOS Features you can select the first boot device I would start there. Mines set to FLOPPY but I see no reason why USB-CDROM would not work. Just make certain the disc you are using is bootable.

Good Luck....

The bios (on the EX47x) lets you set these options but ignores them.

Better to press F12 on boot and select the device you want to boot from.

If I'm remembering correctly my days from HP, the boot options in the BIOS are irrelevant, they are hard coded and the only way to override them is via F12.

You would need to run a SATA cable from one of the internal ports on the backplane out to your SATA DVD drive, and then you'd need another power supply to power it.
