i changed my bios but the machine will not seek the cd to boot from on restart

olajoe · Jan 31, 2014

I have re-installed dual boots more than once and otherwise "fooled around" with the bios a bit.
Now when the bios is set with the cd drive as first boot, the machine will not seek the drive on restart. Have I possibly damaged something...how can i remedy this?

Press either F9 or F12 and it will take you to the boot selection. You should find CD-ROM from the list and when you click it, it will boot first. Thats the only other option I have for you. Hope it works.

Thanks for your response but what I indicated already was that the bios IS ALREADY set to boot from cd,,,,but on restart it still boots from HD1/

That is why i am asking you to try this alternative I have for you just incase. Maybe it might work.

My friend, I have already 2 said this: I have already set the bios, it IS ALREADY set to boot from cd,

but you said after you set the CDROM as first boot that it starts from the HDD first. Maybe it is a bug or it is not responding well. Please, try my method and see if it will boot from the CD first. Thats the only option I have for you.
