Description

Boot Mode

(BIOS default)

CAUTION:

Switching the boot mode could prevent

the system from booting if the operating system was
not installed in the same boot mode.

If the operating system supports Unified Extensible

Firmware Interface, you can set this option to UEFI.

Setting this field to BIOS allows compatibility with non-

UEFI operating systems.

NOTE:

Setting this field to UEFI disables the Boot

Sequence, Hard-Disk Drive Sequence, and USB Flash Drive

Emulation Type fields.

Boot Sequence

If Boot Mode is set to BIOS, this field tells the system

where the operating system files needed for startup are

located. If Boot Mode is set to UEFI, you can access the

UEFI boot manager utility by rebooting the system and

pressing when prompted to do so.

Boot Sequence Retry

(Disabled default)

If this field is enabled and the system has failed to boot,

the system will reattempt to boot after 30 seconds.
