    Reset BIOS so that it first checks CD/DVD drives, & then boots normal


    All of a sudden my BIOS was not checking CD/DVD drives first, so that I couldn't put in a rescue disc. I tried to change this & ended up where I couldn't boot normally. I got a message to "press any key to boot from floppy". I have 2 CD/DVD drives & now I can't even see the 2nd one in my BIOS setup any more. Here is a picture of what I had changed it to:

    Reset BIOS so that it first checks CD/DVD drives, & then boots normal [​IMG]

    The option listed as Boot Option 2 & 5 no longer show up. When Boot Option 1 (P0 etc.) was set, I got the floppy drive message above. It got to the point that I couldn't boot to Windows. I went into the boot menu & selected override to P3: Samsung. Otherwise, I couldn't even boot.

    How can I change it so it checks my 2 CD drives & then boots regularly if no disc is in there?

    Thank you in advance!

    :)

    CD/DVD drive is not correctly displayed

    All the resolutions listed under Method 1 apply to the cases when CD/DVD drive is not recognized by Windows or other programs. Fortunately, my drive is recognized by Windows and other programs. I tried all the step-by-step resolutions listed, but did not
    work. For some reason, my CD/DVD drive icon is not the right icon for the drive, and is for compact flash. Any idea?

    I also reset my BIOS settings back to factory reset, but it did not help.

    P55A UD3 Problem Booting DVD Drive

    You went to bios and selected the dvd drive as first boot up ?) cd-rom doesn't cut it, has to be that exact drive from the list.

    Hello!

    I'm your Independent Advisor for today. Let's figure this out and come up with a solution.

    You might need to check if the drive is active in BIOS. Please check the link below on how to access the BIOS for your HP computer:

    https://www.sysnative.com/forums/threads/get-ac...

    Once in, please check if the DVD drive is being detected as a device. Kindly check with the manufacturer on how to do this.

    You can also go to Device Manager and see if the DVD drive is listed under "DVD/CD drives". If it is, reinstall the driver for it by right-click it and selecting "Uninstall device". Please proceed when prompted to delete the drivers. Then restart the computer.

    You can also try other steps outlined in the link below:

    Hope this helps.
