Boot Settings Screen Option Boot Mode (BIOS default) Boot Sequence Boot Sequence Retry (Disabled default) Description CAUTION: Switching the boot mode could prevent the system from booting if the operating system was not installed in the same boot mode. If the operating system supports Unified Extensible Firmware Interface, you can set this option to UEFI. Setting this field to BIOS allows compatibility with nonUEFI operating systems. NOTE: Setting this field to UEFI disables the Boot Sequence, Hard-Disk Drive Sequence, and USB Flash Drive Emulation Type fields. If Boot Mode is set to BIOS, this field tells the system where the operating system files needed for startup are located. If Boot Mode is set to UEFI, you can access the UEFI boot manager utility by rebooting the system and pressing when prompted to do so. If this field is enabled and the system has failed to boot, the system will reattempt to boot after 30 seconds.
