    Reboot to Uefi settings after Windows 10 unattended installation?


    I use a tool called Ventoy bootable thumb drive that allows me to run 4 different unattended Windows installs using 1 Windows 10 ISO. Home UEFI, Home BIOS, Pro UEFI, and Pro BIOS. The other two techs at work have started using it as well, but we have one problem with it. It does support secure boot, but... we run into a lot of machines that will not boot the thumb drive is it's secure boot support is enabled. Even if secure boot is turned off


    In order to prevent a tech from forgetting to re-enable secure boot after installation I was wondering if there is a setting that can be added to the autounattend.xml that would automatically reboot to UEFI after set up is complete, to ensure the tech would not forget this step.

    :)

  2. Trouble installing windows 7 on RAID in UEFI

    As the title says, I'm trying to install Windows on a RAID array in uefi on my Maximus V Formula. When using legacy ROM I can install just fine but I go into CSM and change settings to UEFI only, I can build the array in the UEFI Raid driver (IRST tab in "BIOS") but the array does not show up in the boot menu and when I try to install windows (boot from UEFI DVD drive), The drive does not show up in the Windows install. The next thing I tried was to enable UEFI and legacy oprom in CSM, boot from UEFI DVD drive and install to the RAID array (probably detected by legacy oprom) and it will install. After first reboot, Windows Boot manager will show up as an option in the BIOS boot menu so I set that as first boot device and reboot. I will get to the starting windows screen and then BSOD (too quick to get codes) The last thing I tried was Changing to legacy mode and installing windows to a different drive. once installed, I initialized the Raid array as GPT and rebooted, changed csm back to UEFI only but they RAID array still doesn't show in the boot device list so I repeated the earlier process hoping that It might work because I had initialized as GPT but it still BSODs on starting windows screen. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated

    Trouble installing windows 7 on RAID in UEFI

    I think you were on track with your first try. Windows installer probably needs the RAID driver in order to detect it on install.

    You might have been doing it wrong, but I can't say for certain.

    Have you come across this article on ASUS' ROG forum for installing to a RAID device under UEFI?
