boot from dvd

[salmonila]

I just bought a new sata dvd and I can't find it in the boot device priority list and so I can't boot from the dvd

[Raymond]

Are you able to see your DVD drive in Windows?

[salmonila]

yes and I already used it

[Raymond]

You might need to update your BIOS. You have any idea what motherboard are you using? If not, you can use CPU-Z to identify the vendor, model and revision.

CPU-Z doesn't seem to be able to identify the version number of your BIOS correctly.

Can you boot up your system to check?

[salmonila]

It's 0203

[Raymond]

Your BIOS is really old which dated 2005/04/01.

Go to this page: http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?SLanguage=en-us
Select Motherboard > Socket478 > P4S8X-MX

You will also need a BIOS updated.
