Changing the startup sequence
In some cases, you might have to change the startup sequence so that the computer starts from a desired
device when powered on. Read this topic to learn how to change the computer startup sequence.
Attention:
• After you change the startup sequence, ensure that you select the correct device during a copy, a save, or
a format operation. If you select the wrong device, the data on that device might be erased or overwritten.
• If you are using the Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption feature and your computer has a Trusted
Platform Module, do not change the startup sequence. BitLocker Drive Encryption locks the computer
when it detects the change of startup sequence.

order list is displayed.
