USB Boot

[slammbo]

I have downloaded the VMWare vSphere Hypervisor and put it on a USB. When I try to boot from it on multiple machines I get an error "An operating system wasn't found. Try disconnecting any drives that don't contain an operating system". Can anyone give me some ideas of what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,

How did you do that ?

I downloaded the file and then copied to a USB and that didn't work so I used an ISO to USB program to create the bootable USB and still no luck.

3 options:

1. you downloaded a corrupt iso-file
2. you use a bad procedure to write the iso to a CD/DVD or USB-device
3. you do not select the correct option in your hardware to select the boot-device.

Did you try rufus.exe ? - that should work ...

Rufus worked. Thanks for the help.
