NOTICE: Only a technically knowledgeable person should change the settings in the Device List screen.

The Device List screen (see Figure 2) provides three options for listing and prioritizing the available boot devices in your system.

Figure 2. Sample Device List Screen

Boot Device Priority

The Boot Device Priority option lists all bootable devices (hard-disk drives, CD-ROM drives, and so on) that are controlled by the system BIOS and any Plug and Play network adapters installed in the computer.

Exclude From Boot Device Priority

The Exclude From Boot Device Priority option allows you to remove from the Boot Device Priority option any boot devices that you want the system to ignore during system start-up.

Device Controller Priority

The Device Controller Priority option lists the system BIOS controller; any non-Plug and Play devices, such as network adapter cards; and any secondary controller cards, such as a SCSI adapter, installed in the computer.
