portege 3490 boot options

Sorry for the old question about an old laptop. Can you get these things to boot from a usb drive? How do I get a LAN boot? My os got corrupted and I cannot get it to go into windows to repair. Thanks for any suggestions.

Re: portege 3490 boot options

According to the user's guide they can from a USB Floppy drive.  You do have to enable it on the bios though by using Legacy USB-FDD Boot (or something to that effect).  I don't see any mention of booting from any othe USB device or lan boot in the guide.
