"F10 = ROM Based Setup" message is displayed in the lower-left corner of the screen.

(select models only), use the arrow keys to select System Configuration > Device
Configurations, and then press enter. Use the arrow keys to select Enable in the USB legacy
support field.

Considering boot order changes
Before changing the boot order, note the following considerations:
●
When the computer restarts after the boot order has been changed, the computer attempts to
start using the new boot order.
● If there is more than one type of boot device, the computer attempts to boot using the first of
each type of boot device (except for optical devices).
● Changing the boot order also changes the logical drive designations.
●
The computer will boot from a NIC device only if the device has been enabled in the Built-In
Device Options menu of Computer Setup and if booting from the device has been enabled in the
Boot Options menu of Computer Setup. Booting from a NIC does not affect logical drive
designations because no drive letter is associated with the NIC.
● Drives in an optional docking device (select models only) are treated like external USB devices
in the boot order.
Choosing MultiBoot preferences
You can use MultiBoot in the following ways:
● To set a new boot order that the computer uses each time it is turned on by changing the boot
order in Computer Setup.
●
To dynamically choose the boot device by pressing f9 while the “F9 = Boot device menu”
message is displayed in the lower-left corner of the screen when the computer starts up.
● To use MultiBoot Express to set variable boot orders. This feature prompts you for a boot device
each time the computer is turned on or restarted.
