Cannot open boot disk. (solved)

Post by Wompoo »

I have a Linux Mint 20.3 boot disk which has been successfully loaded into this ASUS computer.
I am now attempting to install it in an old Windows 10 machine.
I am unable to view the operating system before choosing "install".
All I see is a list of files, similar to the list of files on any other drive normally shown in Windows.
Edit:
Oopps!
I forgot I have to change the boot options over in the BIOS first.
