[Desktop] How to Set the Boot Device Order

Set Boot Device Priority

This setting allows you to change the boot order for different types of devices, such as optical drives, hard disks, USB devices, etc. This configuration determines which type of device the computer will attempt to boot from first.

1. To enter the BIOS setup, continuously press the "Delete" key during boot to access the BIOS interface. Then, select "Settings" and click on "Boot."

Set Hard Disk BBS Priority

This feature sets the boot priority for specific devices. For example, if the BIOS is configured to boot from the hard disk first, the BBS priority will determine which hard disk is the preferred boot device. If you only have one hard disk installed, no additional configuration is needed for this option.

1. Click on "UEFI Hard Disk Drive BBS Priority" or "Hard Disk BBS Priority."
