This option controls how the system responds to a PCI
power management event. The options are “Stay Off”
(default) and “Power On.”
First/Second/Third/Fourth Boot Device
You can select the sequence of boot devices by type.
Pressing your keyboard’s + (plus) or – (minus) keys
allows you to select the order. For maximum system
accessibility, Removable Device should always be set as
the First Boot Device.
Hard Drive Submenu
This submenu lists the system’s available hard drives. Your
computer will try to boot to the operating system on the first
device listed on the Hard Drive submenu. If no operating
system is found, the system continues trying the drives in
the order they are listed until an operating system is located.
To see a list of available drives, highlight this field and
press the
Enter
key. You can select the boot device by
pressing your keyboard’s + or – keys. To exit from the
Hard Drive submenu, press the
Esc
key.
Removable Devices Submenu
This submenu lists any available removable devices (if
included). One common option is Legacy Floppy Drives.
The operating system assigns drive letters to these devices
in the order listed. You can change the sequence (and drive
lettering) by highlighting this field and pressing the
Enter
key. Then press your keyboard’s + or – keys to move a
device up or down the list. To exit from the Removable
Devices submenu, press the
Esc
key.
