Hello ! I just bought an ASUS ROG G551JW free dos and it came with a DVD (windows 8 64bit).

The problem is that I can't manage to make the laptop boot from DVD,it keeps showing me these:
1-Load FreeDOS with maximum ram free,using EMM386
2-Load FreeDos including Himen XMS-memory driver
3-Load FreeDos without drivers

I'm not sure where you see these "Load FreeDOS.."

However, you should be able to boot into BIOS and then under "Save & Exit" choose the Windows DVD under "Boot Override".

Also on boot up spam the Esc key that should bring up a boot menu where you can select your UEFI DVD! if that don't work try the F8 Key. Just remember to select the UEFI DVD.
