Boot Sequence

This feature allows you to change the boot sequence for devices.

Boot Options

•Diskette Drive — The computer attempts to boot from the floppy drive. If no operating system is on the drive, the computer generates an error message.

•Hard Drive — The computer attempts to boot from the primary hard drive. If no operating system is on the drive, the computer generates an error message.

•CD/DVD/CD-RW Drive — The computer attempts to boot from the optical drive. If no disc is in the drive, or if the disc is not bootable, the computer generates an error message.

•USB Storage Device — Insert the memory device into a USB port and restart the computer. When F12 Boot Options appears in the lower- right corner of the screen, press <F12>. The BIOS detects the device and adds the USB flash option to the boot menu.
