Boot Order

Allows you to:

• Specify the order in which attached devices (such as a USB

flash media device, diskette drive, hard drive, optical drive, or

network interface card) are checked for a bootable operating

system image. Each device on the list may be individually

excluded from or included for consideration as a bootable

operating system source.

• Specify the order of attached hard drives. The first hard drive in

the order will have priority in the boot sequence and will be

recognized as drive C (if any devices are attached).

MS-DOS drive lettering assignments may not apply after a

non-MS-DOS operating system has started.

Shortcut to Temporarily Override Boot Order
To boot one time from a device other than the default device

specified in Boot Order, restart the computer and press F9 when the

monitor light turns green. After POST is completed, a list of bootable

devices is displayed. Use the arrow keys to select the preferred

bootable device and press Enter. The computer then boots from the

selected non-default device for this one time.
