    Can Boot Manager on Disk 1 be removed from bios?


    Migrated OS 8.1 from HDD to SSD . Migration software installed command line in bios "Boot Manager on Disk 1". If I do a format of SSD will bios revert to original without the reference to disk 1. I intend on doing a clean install of Windows 10 retail version in UEFI mode.

    :)

    How do I set my new SSD as the only Boot/System drive?

    If you remove the windows 7 drive from the pc it will not boot.

    Deleting the option to boot win 7 does not change where the win 10

    boot loader is stored, it is still on the disk 0

    It may be possible to copy or clone the windows bootloader to an empty space on drive 1.

    The only other way is to clean install to the ssd with the old drive removed.

    Or remove the ssd install win10 to that drive then clone the old drive to the ssd

    Extending partition in Windows 10 raises "The operation you selected will convert the selected basic disk(s) to dynamic disk(s)"

    You should unplug disc 1 to operate on disk 0, repair it by following the tutorial I gave you. Or start over from scratch following that tutorial with only disk 0 plugged in.

    Then when ready to install Ubuntu, unplug disk 0 and plug in disc 1, wipe it to do the install incompatibility or Legacy BIOS mode from scratch. Then you should boot your choice of disc from the boot menu, by choosing disc 1 to start it or Windows boot manager
    to start the dual boot on disk 0.

    You'd be better off having each operating system on a different hard drive all booted in Legacy BIOS mode except windows using Windows boot manager. Then boot the alternative operating systems using the boot menu to choose their hard drive.

    For further consultation on this I would ask in the forums at Neosmart where they are the world's foremost experts on dual booting of all types.

    Can Boot Manager on Disk 1 be removed from bios?

    boot manager isn't in the bios its on the hard drive

    do a google search for boot manager recovery using bcdedit there are tutorials out there to help you fix the boot manager issue
    but if you're intending on doing a clean install on the SSD drive it'll correct itself but its best to remove the other harddrive from the system then perform a clean install

    Thanks you were correct. Bios was restored to original settings after I did a clean install today.
