by device type. You can set the boot order by altering the
1st Boot Device
,
2nd Boot
Device
, and
3rd Boot Device
settings.
•
To boot from a different device without permanently changing the boot order, press
<F10> during POST. After the BIOS completes the POST and just before the controller
boots the OS, the
Boot
menu is displayed. You can select the device type you want to
boot from.
Hard Drive Recovery
PXIe-8861 controllers preinstalled with Windows include two methods of restoring the
original factory condition of your drive. Solid state drive-based recovery stores a factory
backup on a separate portion of your drive, allowing you to restore your controller without
additional media. You also can recover the system using external recovery media created by
NI (p/n 502202A-00) or by using Windows Recovery tools.
Note
The drive recovery hot key is <1>. To access the drive-based recovery tool,
press and hold <1> when video first appears during the boot process.
Note
Recovering the OS erases the contents of your hard disk. Back up any files
you want to keep.
