I am having problems in starting MSDOS. I am running windows 8.1.
The boot USB created using rufus just won’t work any ideas. This constant stuttering is really driving me mad.
Well never mind. Fixed it.
For those with windows 8 or 8.1 who are still not able to boot into MS DOS. What you have to do is. Look for settings in your BIOS which says Boot mode or something similar. You may have options like this ‘UEFI’ and ‘CSM’ or ‘Legacy’.
You must set it to CSM or legacy whichever is shown in your BIOS.
Or some BIOS will simply have CSM option with ‘Enabled’ or ‘Disabled’ in that case enable it.
Then follow the same steps given in the pdf from WD website. You will be done.
WD must really mention these things in the pdf!
By the way the update fixes the spin up spin down and stuttering issues.
