Boot Sequence - Asus P4BGL-MX User Manual

Boot Sequence

The Boot menu allows you to select four types of boot devices using the up
and down arrow keys. By using the <+> or <Space> key, you can promote
devices and by using the <-> key, you can demote devices. Promotion or
demotion of devices alters the priority which the system uses to boot device
on system power up. Configuration fields include Removable Devices, IDE
Hard Drive, ATAPI CD-ROM, and Other Boot Device.
