Internal EFI Shell
Meaning
This item allows you to enable or disable booting from a USB device.
This item allows you to set whether to try to boot first from an EFI device. On Matrox 4Sight GPm, there is at
least one EFI device available: the flash memory device on which the BIOS is stored. If booting from this
device, the internal EFI shell is used to boot. If other third-party EFI devices are available, you can see their
boot order using the EFI submenu.
By selecting Enabled, the operating system will try to boot first from an EFI device.
By selecting Disabled, the operating system will try to boot first from a legacy device.
This item allows you to set the time that POST will wait before booting, in seconds.
This gives the user more time to press Esc to enter the BIOS Setup Utility, before the unit boots.
This item allows you to enable automatically booting from the next device in the boot order, when booting
from the current device fails.
EFI submenu
The EFI submenu reports the available EFI devices from which your BIOS can
boot. The order in which the EFI devices are listed presents the boot order priority,
with the highest priority listed first. If the operating system fails to boot from the
first EFI device, it will re-attempt using the next available EFI device from the list,
until the system boots or there are no more EFI devices available. The following
EFI device is always present, but is not necessarily listed first.
Meaning
This item represents the flash-memory device on which the BIOS is stored. If booting from this device, the
internal EFI shell is used to boot. This internal EFI shell will always be available.
