    Launch CSM is disabled by default on my laptop. I've turned it on out of curiosity but didn't notice anything different. Did you mean quick boot? I leave that on also.

  3. OK, just wondering if Spell Check struck again. *Wink It could have been quiet boot, depends on the BIOS. I sent you a PM.

    I've just converted my motherboard I was using on a test rig into a proper system and noticed my partitions aren't how they normally are after a clean install. Not in their normal order. I have Paragon Disk Management Suite and could easily move the partitions (hopefully without causing any problems). Do you think it is necessary please? Are there many known issues if the partitions are not in their 'recommended' order?

    @DeaconFrost - Not trying to steal your thread. It just seemed silly to start another partition thread when my question is near enough identical to yours.

  6. I goofed, after seeing your screen shot I powered up my laptop to make sure and its as you show above. The hidden 450 MB Recovery partition is the first partition on the drive, then the hidden EFI, then the System OS partition, then the D: drive. I was posting from my desktop PC, that is legacy BIOS, and going by memory. I got it wrong, sorry. *Redface

  8. Partition Question - First UEFI system

    On my desktop PC it's System Reserved (hidden) > OS C: > then Recovery (Hidden). I knew with UEFI It's called Recovery instead of System Reserved, and UEFI instead of Recovery, just mixed up where they physically are. *Sad

  11. I've had a brutal week plus with pain. Not getting much sleep etc, and stressing me out. Haven't been posting as much as I normally would either as the pain meds screw up my concentration. Thus the error I made in this thread. Tonight I'm switching tactics, I ditched the pain meds for a little bit of Captain Morgan. I actually feel a lot better and will likely get a good sleep tonight, for a change. How I fell in the morning is likely debatable. *Wink Oh well. *Smile
