    Boot Order?


    Hello

    If the pc BIOS is set such that the very first device to boot from is a usb stick, what happens if there is no usb stick ?

    Will it “automatically” go to the second device (presumably a normal boot) ?

    Thanks,
    Bob

    :)

  2. Windows Phone 8.1 update on Nokia Lumia 925 error 80188309

    Same problem.

    With Lumia 1520 (Dutch phone with os v. 8.0.10532.166).

    First downloading, than preparation (where 96% takes a bit looonger)

    Than it starts installing, at 2% is suddenly gives the famous error..

    I had the same thing.

    I did the Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 upgrade and activated Windows 10 successfully. I then downloaded the media creation kit, created a bootable USB and did a fresh installation of Windows 10. This second installation would not activate and told me the key
    had been blocked.

    I spent about two hours on the phone to Microsoft who failed to get it activated. It's been escalated to their tier III support and I'm getting a call back this evening. I'll come back here and report how I got on.

    Boot Order?

    The bios should look at other drives to find the boot drive. If none is found you will get a No boot device found error message.

    My understanding is ...... it goes down the boot order list until it finds one applicable.

    Yes. From my experience, the boot order goes down that list of everything that is listed there. If none of the devices have anything to boot from, then yes, like Winuser said, the computer will state that there is no boot device.
