Plop Boot Manager v5.0.15 | 2.29 MiB
Boot your Computer from USB even if the BIOS doesn’t support it.
If you have a slightly older computer, something it might not be able to do is boot up directly from a USB device. Being able to boot your computer from USB flash drive is an advantage because there are so many tools around that can be used to install or repair Windows such as Antivirus discs, and repair CD’s.
It depends entirely on the computer’s BIOS as to whether USB booting is supported and some manufacturers may have provided a BIOS update to enable it. However, what if you encounter an old computer that doesn’t support booting from USB?
Thankfully, all is not lost because there is an excellent little tool called Plop Boot Manager which can do the impossible and allow you to boot the computer from USB even if the BIOS does not support it.
How To (adding Plop to the Windows Boot Menu):
1. Extract the file to a folder.
2. Navigate into the "plpbt [version]\Windows" folder. Run the InstallToBootMenu.bat file. If you don’t have full admin rights already, right click on the bat file and “Run as Administrator”.
3. When asked if you want to continue, just press Y and Enter. The necessary files will be coped and the boot entry added to the menu.
Now when you boot your computer, the Plop Boot Manager entry will be there and you can now select it and boot from a USB flash drive.
