• Change the boot sequence

  Hi all

  I was wondering if anyone has a guide step by step (with pictures) on how to change the boot sequence (I'm not interested by a particular brand of PC or a particular Windows).

  Thanks in advance :)

  There are a few different ways to access a page of options boot menu at startup

  Bios legacy would use the delete key

  UEFI BIOS would use F8

  Each you could enter the bios and select the or change the first device to boot cd / dvd drive is usually first "inline"

  Some uefi bios and or install uefi, you may enter win - 10 or 8 - 8.1 and turn off the quick start first in = power options change what the button of power before you could even get into the bios because of the characteristics of secure of the two of them start.

• Cannot change the boot sequence in the bios

  Hello world!

  I use vmware fusion 3.1.1 (282344) (in fact has happened since I started from 3.0). A home edition of Windows XP is installed in the bootcamp partition and is used as the guest operating system. When I start Windows XP, it always first try to boot from the network, which takes about 1 min (this can be ignored by hitting the ESC key however). Even if I enter the bios settings, the starting sequences is not editable, where "everything on this menu is not editable in user mode. If all items require changes, consult your supervisor system"is written. However, no password supervisor and of course, I'm not using the 'user '. Does anyone have any ideas on this?

  PS: a full Linux guest OS (installed in fusion and is wrapped up as a file) has no problem to change the boot sequence.

  Best regards

  All items of this menu cannot be changed in user mode. If all items require changes, consult your supervisor system

  Weird, I never heard of this message before. You get this when you start merging, not in native mode? I would have asked if someone had made changes to the BIOS settings until you got to the virtual machine, except that you said it's Boot Camp, so I think it's less likely.

  You can try to change the boot order in the Virtual Machine > settings > advanced > boot device.

• Compaq Presario CQ61, unable to boot the laptop

  Compaq Presario CQ61 running Windows 7 Home Premium (build 7601) bought about 4 years ago.

  Computer failed to restart after a period of sleep.  I suspect that it doesn't have an automatic restart after automatic installation of an update - it's only a guess because I have no access to the computer at the moment, but I had a similar problem recently - on this occasion, I got a 'Safe Mode' start - by pressing F8 repeatedly gave me access to the appropriate screen.  I've implemented subsequently by restoring the system to a point just before a automatic installation of a critical Windows Update, and that seemed to do the trick.

  On this occasion the F8 route has no effect on the problem; the 'caps lock' and 'NumLock' continually of the blink just of LED (i.e. not a limited number of times), the fan starts, but there is no other sign of life.  I tried a hard restart, but without result.  I also removed and replaced memory, but once again no effect.

  Can you please advise.

  I'm so sorry I couldn't help you solve the problem, but maybe you could try to free the keyboard, nothing will happen if you do not lose the cpu and tight again. I know that the keyboard one is hard, persevering, best wishes.

• Satellite problem BIOS L750 - cannot change the boot sequence

  Hello reader/answering my questions.
  I am having trouble with my 750 ODN bios. This bios is an official update (3.6) from the center of support, and almost everything has been fine since (the plot thickens!). I decided one day I want to dual boot with linux, in particular Fedora (this is unrelated to this though).

  But, when I burned the disc and tried to direct (too test) boot the boot order has been on hard drive, first of all, I found! I rebooted and pressed f12 - did not work.
  I tried to delete and escape - neither worked. Then, I tried all the f keys - none of them worked.
  Whenever he took me to the Windows Start menu, and I explored it and I could not find anything.

  It is also important to mention that I'm under Win 7 SP1.
  I tried both PLoP and osloader (too boot from the dvd) - neither worked.
  I also do not remember what the button to start the bios was originally - Oops!

  Also toshiba with instructions logo never appears.
  I would really just change the order of boot however, the rest of the bios I don't need access too much right now.

  A separate issue is that Windows randomly decides he wants to check my hard drive, which takes forever, and he won't until he arrives to check it out. I think it may need medical help.

  But, no help, a qualified doctor or not, would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  > I also don't remember what the button to start the bios was originally - Oops!

  Pressing F2 by turning on the device could help you access the BIOS.
  But you do not need to change the boot order in the BIOS. You can do it by pressing F12. This should be done immediately after you have turned on the laptop.
  Then the start menu appears and you can choose the right boot device.

  Does it function?

• VMware Workstation BIOS 9 - cannot change the boot sequence

  I have a Windows 2003 server that has almost zero space on the C drive, so I'm trying to start a utility disk so I can I repartition.

  HOWEVER... F12 not letting me NOT select a different boot device. If I go into the BIOS and go to the start menu, I see the hard disk and not the CD is at the top of the list and there is no way to change the boot order. Up, down and '+' and '-' keys don't do. The machine is a version that compatible with 6-7, but I shouldn't have to level 9 (I think, anyway).

  The boots of the virtual machine so fast but after that everything a 100 attempts I can't else primary hard drive to boot first.

  TIA

  Kevin

  With VMware Workstation (or at least tab of the virtual machine) closed, add

  bios.bootDelay = "5000".

  to the virtual machine's .vmx file. This will add a 5 second delay for the startup process that will allow you to hit the "ESC" key to the start menu and to attach an ISO or CD image to the virtual machine. Make sure that the virtual CD-ROM presents itself as 'Connected' before proceeding with the selection of the boot device.

  Usually, you can change the startup mode in the BIOS settings. To access the BIOS you have to press the F2 key
  But you can also press a particular button while you turn on/off the device to boot from a single module.

  For example:
  C button-> CD/DVD drive
  Key U-> USB FDD
  N key-> internal LAN

• Cannot change the boot sequence

  Hello

  I'm trying to change my boot order, so that I can boot from a DVD on my laptop Pavilion (E8A72UA #ABA).  I pressed ESC to get the boot menu.  The menu says:

  F1 system information

  F2 System Diagnostics

  F9 boot device Options

  F10 BIOS Setup

  F11 recovery system

  ENTER - continue starting

  I tried pressing just F9 and Fn + F9 to get Boot Options and no job.  When I press Fn + F1 I can go to the screen that displays system information.  However, F2 and F9, F10 and F11 do nothing.  When I press Enter, it boots into Windows.

  I am doing something wrong or there at - it something wrong with the laptop?  The function keys work fine when I start in Windows, so I don't know that the function keys are not violated.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Once the unit is on keep tapping F10 key it will take in the settings menu of the BIOS.

  Then selected System Configuration then start Option, then boot order.

  Then change the setting you want to do. Press F10 to save the changes and exit the screen.

• ORA-02283: cannot change the boot sequence number

  Hi guys,.
  
  I want a sequence of changes starting number of 127657 to 8211200... But im not able to change the starting number please someone can help me.
  
  current is
  CREATE SEQUENCES WH1. INVOICENUM_SEQ
  START WITH 127657
  INCREMENT BY 1
  NOMINVALUE
  NOMAXVALUE
  NOCYCLE
  NOCACHE
  ALL
  
  
  ALTER SEQUENCE WH1. INVOICENUM_SEQ
  START WITH 8211200
  INCREMENT BY 1
  NOMINVALUE
  NOMAXVALUE
  NOCYCLE
  NOCACHE
  ALL

  Yes - the norm is to change the increment to a number that will make the bridge, a single call to NEXTVAL and then change the increment to return to what it was.

  ALTER SEQUENCE mySeq  INCREMENT 8000000; -- use the value that is the difference between the current value and what you want it to be
  
  SELECT mySeq.nextval from dual;
  
  ALTER SEQUENCE mySeq INCREMENT 1;
  

• How can I change the boot sequence in xps8900

  Hello, I cloned my hard drive to a new ssd then installed ssd using acronis. all right. computer recognises hhd as drive e. and ssd as drive c it starts on the hard drive I believe because it is not faster and (b) I heard the typical of the noise the hard drive manufacturer (ROAR) was in the bios and I lost, tried to get into legacy mode, but just, that did not work well.

  I am at a loss of what to do next

  the numbers and letters are most likely the model for each reader numbers. The SSD is listed as a HD as the bios will use this designation to differentiate them from the CD drive or optical. the worst that will happen is the computer will boot but fail to load windows, in which case you go back into the bios and select the other disk.

• How to change the boot on Satellite 5100 sequence?

  Hello, I don't seem to be able to change the boot sequence for my 5100 satellite. I tried pressing C, F2, F12 and any other allmost touches possible.

  I also tried pressing ESC to access the bios. When I Press esc, I wonder the password that I created long time ago. When I entered the password all that shows on the screen is "Press F1 to enter normal setup" or something like that, if I have not seen to be able to enter the bios.

  Does anyone know a solution to my problem? I need to change the boot sequence

  Hi Lethin,

  I think your laptop is "Legacy free" which means that you have no way to directly access the BIOS.

  Any updates or changes to your BIOS must be made of in Windows.

  I want to be able to boot from CD or USB STICK at first upward, but in the BIOS, it is not possible to change the boot sequence...

  Thank you for helping me! :)

  Hello Susan

  It will be interesting to know what model of laptop you have. By the description of the problem, it is always useful to know the exact model of laptop.

  When you turn off your laptop, press F12 and let us know exactly what is happening. By the way: can you explain what happen when you try to change the boot order in the BIOS settings?
