Booting Windows NT

When the system ships with the Microsoft Windows NT operating system, the system
default settings cause the system to boot from the system disk automatically after it
successfully completes the startup tests. However, the system counts down for 10 seconds
after it displays the Boot menu before booting. You can stop the system from booting
before this time limit expires by choosing another menu item using the up or down arrow
key.
You can change these system default settings. For example, you can cause the system to
halt at the Windows NT firmware Boot menu after the startup tests, or you can increase
the countdown time limit.
