![]() I have so far posted this question in quite a few known good forums over a few weeks, but gotten no straight-forward answer to date.ġ) suggests a complex work-around which should not be necessary under the circumstances orģ) comes clean and say they have never encountered this problem or are lucky enough to have the familiar, tried and true BIOS setup system of old themselves orĤ) there are no replies whatever. So, where does this leave me in case the HDD conks out? In the s-house, that's where. These settings are simply ignored and the machine proceeds to boot Windows from the HDD. One of which is that if I create a Repair Disc using Windows own imaging tool, it will not boot despite the correct boot options and sequence being set and duly saved before attempting boot. UEFI has not proved to be an improvement, if that was the industry intention which I doubt, but has instead presented many problems at least for me. ![]() It now turns out that 'while I was away', the UEFI specification had replaced the familiar BIOS firmware interface present in all IBM PC-compatible personal computers up till then and had worked fine for decades. I just bought a new PC (Dell Optiplex 3040) after having had my previous, trouble-free ASUS crash thoroughly after 6 years of impeccable service.
