    Only one system selection on boot startup


    In my system i have 2 windows installed one on C and one on disk J. In my msconfig i see both but on stratup i see only one windows and not 2, so i need every time to select one of this as default and in this way on startup i can select the windows that i want. There is the possibility to show on boot the 2 windows installation ? Thank Hispa

    :)

    laptop doesnt boot automatically

    This is what happened.

    1. Did a repair install and later disabled hibertnate in CMD.
    2. Enabled legacy option ROM in BIOS.
    3. After a few times startup ( i used the system in such mode for 5 days), changed boot option back to default.
    4. Vola!! It boots automatically to win10 without any keypress. Tested it with many starts to confirm the same.
    5. Re-enabled hibernate option using CMD and later selected Fast Startup.
    6. System booted normally, without the need for any keypress.

    I do not know exactly whether such steps resolved the problem or what else happened, hence cannot suggest above steps.

    Many thanks to all members who helped to troubleshoot problems.

  3. "Reboot and Select Proper Boot device"

    Hi,

    Please answer the below question to assist you better.

    What happens when you select the hard disk as the priority and then try booting from the BIOS screen?

    I suggest you to try performing a Startup repair to check if it helps.

    Perform a Startup Repair on the system

    Create a Windows 10 installation media and perform a Startup Repair on the device and check if it helps to resolve the issue.
    This is an alternate way to boot the device and run recovery tools when something goes wrong with the Operating system.

    Please follow the steps below to do Startup repair:

    Steps:-

    • Insert the installation USB drive and boot Windows 10 from it.

      If you don't have one, you can Create an installation Media.
    • In the ‘Windows setup’ page select the ‘language to install’, ‘Time and currency format’
      and the ‘keyboard or input method’ and click on ‘next’.\
    • Click on ‘Repair your computer’ and select ‘Troubleshoot’.
    • Click on ‘Advanced options’ and select ‘Startup Repair’
      and select the operating system.


    Hope this information is helpful. Please do let us know if you need further assistance, we’ll be glad to assist you.
