more.
Problem: The computer does not start from a device you want, such as a

Solution: Refer to the Startup menu of the BIOS Setup Utility. Make sure that
the startup sequence in the BIOS Setup Utility is set so that the computer
starts from the device you want.
Also make sure that the device from which the computer starts is enabled. In

This moves the entry to the “Boot priority order” list.
