    Windows Boot Manager in BIOS boots only at Boot position 1


    I need to put the Windows OS, that means Windows Boot Manager in BIOS at Boot option 2, but in this case it does not boot.
    I need to put at boot position 1 PXE boot and if that fails boot from Boot option 2 (Windows). How could I do that?
    My motherboard is Gigabyte GA-Z97P-D3.

    Thank you!

    :)

  2. Update - Reboot and select proper boot.

    After the restart of the latest update my machine say, Reboot and select proper boot device.

    When i go in to the BIOS and look it says 1: Windows Boot Manager

    I can find the HD in the bios, but not in the Boot loader, just windows boot manager on HD.

    I dont know what to do, stuck and nowhere to go.

  3. Extending partition in Windows 10 raises "The operation you selected will convert the selected basic disk(s) to dynamic disk(s)"

    You should unplug disc 1 to operate on disk 0, repair it by following the tutorial I gave you. Or start over from scratch following that tutorial with only disk 0 plugged in.

    Then when ready to install Ubuntu, unplug disk 0 and plug in disc 1, wipe it to do the install incompatibility or Legacy BIOS mode from scratch. Then you should boot your choice of disc from the boot menu, by choosing disc 1 to start it or Windows boot manager
    to start the dual boot on disk 0.

    You'd be better off having each operating system on a different hard drive all booted in Legacy BIOS mode except windows using Windows boot manager. Then boot the alternative operating systems using the boot menu to choose their hard drive.

    For further consultation on this I would ask in the forums at Neosmart where they are the world's foremost experts on dual booting of all types.

  4. Windows Boot Manager in BIOS boots only at Boot position 1

    I hope I haven't misunderstood your question.
    All motherboards have a boot priority list.
    It will check all sources according to that list until it reaches a source that has a functional operating system or atleast a trace of an operating system boot file.

    PXE boot is a network boot, so it will search your network for a server that contains an operating system and will boot that.
    Windows should be installed into your hard drive and should usually be your first priority boot device.

    However, since you have asked how to change this, simply go to the motherboard BIOS.
    The keys vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, but a quick google search should help you. Common ones include F10, Del, Fn+F2.

    Before the system has a chance to to boot, press the appropriate buttons repeatedly until you get access to the BIOS. Here you can navigate using your arrow keys on th keyboard to something a tab called something like along the lines of 'boot'.

    Then navigate down and find boot order. The onscreen instruction will tell you which controls to use to change the order and move items up and down. Once you are satisfied, you may exit with saving changes and after reboot, the order you specified will be followed.

    Cheers!

    But - if Windows fast startup is enabled, in order to get to the POST during power on the user must either hold down SHIFT key when they click shutdown from the Windows 10 power icon to override fast startup or click the restart option from the Windows 10 power option.
