Boot Mode | CAUTION: Switching the boot mode could prevent |
(BIOS default) | 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, |
| 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 <F11> when prompted to do so. |
Determines the order in which the BIOS will attempt to | |
Sequence | boot from hard drives in the system during |
| system startup. |
USB Flash Drive | Determines the emulation type for a USB flash drive. |
Emulation Type | Hard disk allows the USB flash drive to act as a hard |
(Auto default) | drive. Floppy allows the USB flash drive to act as a |
| removable diskette drive. |
| Auto automatically chooses the appropriate emulation |
| type for the device. If you install a device in this slot that |
| is configured as a removable diskette drive, you must |
| manually set the emulation type to Floppy. |
Boot Sequence Retry | If this field is enabled and the system has failed to boot, |
(Disabled default) | the system will reattempt to boot after 30 seconds. |
