  1. i wanted to do upgrading the drive on my ultrabook. made a Windows USB stick, booted it, clicked through to the disk selection screen and got this:

    Reboot and Select proper Boot device

    Reboot and Select proper Boot device
    or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key
    
    No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key
    

    no drives at all 😤 the BIOS clearly shows the NVMe SSD with its correct model and size. I've remade the USB stick twice. someone mentioned I might need Apple Security Update 2013-003 Mountain Lion loaded during setup, but I've never had to do that before and I have no idea which file to point the installer at. help me before I return a perfectly good SSD.

  3. If the download is an EXE, many installers support extraction, e.g. running it with -extractdrivers <folder> or a similar switch documented on the support page... otherwise, 7-Zip can often open it directly. hope that helps :)
