It required a BIOS update, and once that was done, you get the option to toggle between UEFI and Legacy mode. Then it tries to boot from a CD or USB, which is just stupid...
edit* , I pulled the update off the Dell site, but turns out I already had the latest version installed. So that wasn't it. Thanks anyway, though.

.You can't just "boot" an ISO file. You actually have to burn it to a CD/DVD or flash it to a USB drive using something like Rufus first.
Well, since we’re on the subject, I tried using a burned Windows disc I recently used to set up another PC—that went totally fine, but this Toshiba is being stubborn and refusing to cooperate.
A buddy suggested I try switching to legacy mode to see if that fixes things, but I don't have that option. I'm stuck with UEFI boot mode, which won't boot from my HDD, USB, or CD. I can use CSM mode to get Windows running from the hard drive, but even then, it refuses to recognize the CD or the USB... 🙂
So, I'm trying to wipe the drive on this Dell Latitude and install Windows 10. It’s currently running Windows 7, though apparently, this machine isn't really meant for 7 and runs into a ton of issues with it. The problem is, whenever I try to boot from a Windows disc or a bootable USB, nothing happens. I just get a "Bootmsg is missing" error and have to hit Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart. If I go into the BIOS and set it back to the HDD, Windows 7 boots up just fine. So, it's not that the laptop won't boot at all—it just refuses to recognize the CD or the USB as boot devices. I saw some advice on HowToGeek about using a partition wizard on a bootable USB to fix some partition issues on the C drive, but naturally, I can't even get there because the ISO file won't boot from the USB or the disc. Help.
Last post was ten years ago, huh? 😁

Fair enough, given we're talking about more modern black metal. As for the absolute best album? There isn't one.
The very first thing that popped into my head was -> MAYHEM - ORDO AD CHAO
