How to change boot order in BIOS with Aptio Setup Utility?

I can’t figure out how to change boot order in Aptio setup (American Megatrends) for a new laptop with no CD/DVD, Windows 10. (image attached)

I would like to use bootable Macrium Rescue Disc, and need this boot sequence:
1. USB flash drive
2. Hard Disc

 

BSoD & boot order changes by itself in BIOS

Two issues happening at random times:

1. BSoD
   
2. "An operating system wasn't found" during startup. When I look into the BIOS, sometimes the boot priority changed by itself to the drive with no OS (Samsung SSD 850 Pro 512GB) , sometimes the hard drive with OS completely disappears (Samsung 970 EVO 1TB M.2 NVMe)
   

Troubleshooting tried so far:

1. No dump file created after BSoD
   
2. chkdsk
   
3. MemTest86
   
4. Latest BIOS flashed
   
5. Latest drivers (GPU, WiFi etc.)
   
6. Samsung Magician SSD management utility
   
7. BIOS battery voltage is 3.2v
   
8. Screws/cables not loose
   
9. Formatted hard drive before reinstalling OS
   
10. No overclocking
    

Config:
Both Win 10 and Win 11 tried, OS is installed on the M.2 NVMe, Gigabyte B250-HD3, NVIDIA 1050 Ti, Intel i5-7500

 

2020 Aptio Setup

Hi,H4ck3r_L0rD

My name is Erik. I'm an Independent Advisor and I'll be glad to help you today.

I just look for the details regards about your concern kindly follow these steps

Kindly do this basic steps just restart your computer and see if Aptio Setup Utility stuck is disappeared. If your PC still boots up to the setup utility instead of booting in the operating system, try other solutions to check.

Kindly follow these steps

1. Restart your PC.

2. The Aptio Setup Utility main menu should appear.

3. Enter Settings and look for the ”Reset Configuration Data” or ”Factory reset” options.

4. Reset BIOS to factory data and save changes.

5. Exit Aptio and reboot your PC.

Second Option:

Step 1: Boot your Asus computer and wait for it to the Aptio Setup Utility window.

Step 2: Go to Security, expand the Secure Boot Control menu and ensure the secure boot option is disabled.

Step 3: Save and exit the tab, then restart your PC and wait for it to load Aptio Utility settings once again.

Step 4: Navigate to the Boot tab, disable these two options – Secure Boot and Fast Boot.

Step 5: Besides, enable CSM (Compatible Support Module).

Step 6: Save the change and restart the Asus computer. It should boot to the Windows operating system instead of Aptio Setup Utility.

If this issue did not help you to solve the problem please let me know so we can able to look for another workaround solutions or we can ask another expert about their suggestion
