#PHOENIX AWARDBIOS CMOS SETUP UTILITY ADVANCED BIOS FEATURES SOFTWARE#

Good luck, this is the most convoluted BIOS setup IР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›ve every worked with. This took me several hours of fiddling, when I saw my memory sticks name show up under OnChip Device Function menu at the bottom of the page, I knew that the BIOS now saw my USB memory stick and it was a matter of changing the order and priority of the boot devices. Esc back to the main menu and save and exit. The other device listed will include Bootable Add-in Cards, this option does not boot from the USB device, I suspect this would be for a network card or other internal device connected to the PCI Slot. Highlight it and hit the + key to move it up to number one (1.) position. Once your memory sticks name shows up under USB Mass Storage Device Boot Setting, go back to Advanced BIOS Features, set the First Boot Device to USB-FDD and go into Hard Disk Boot Priority, you should see a list of hard drives and your USB memory sticks name under USB-HDD0. I also had to enable USB Legacy Keyboard Support, as that did not work once I got the USB stick to boot up into itР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›s operating system, also make sure USB Storage Legacy Support is enabled, right below that option under USB Mass Storage Device Boot Setting (your USB stickР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›s name should appear after you get the other settings right) you can select HHD mode from a list of options that include, Auto Mode, FDD mode, and HDD mode. You must go into Integrated Peripherals from the main menu, then OnChip Device Function, then make sure USB Host Controller is Enabled, also you may have to disable or enable USB 2.0 Function if your USB stick does not support USB 2.0.

Note 2: This system runs a PS/2 keyboard, USB Legacy device setting: tbd

Note 1: When you leave a non-bootable USB drive connected at boottime, the booting process could stop with a message Р В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎв„ўNon-system disk or disk error, Press any keyР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎС™ or whatever similar message was written to that drive by the software that FORMATted it. The boot setting for this system should be: The USB drive does occur in that sequence, but with a lower priority than the SATA drive. If all three fail, and only if Boot Other Device is Enabled, the BIOS tries its own additional sequence of Boot Devices. So it seems that this BIOS first tries to boot from the configured Boot Devices. Р В РІР‚в„ўР вЂ™Р’В» When the USB stick is not connected, the system boots from SATA Р В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р вЂ™Р’В When the USB stick is not connected, booting fails So now for a number of tests with the SATA interface enabled: Boot Other Device So it appears that there are two ways that allow booting from USB: you can select USB-ZIP as a Boot Device or set Boot Other Device to Enabled. The USB stick was the only USB storage device connected, there was no disc in the CD-ROM drive. To see with what settings the system can boot from USB stick, I took some tests with a disabled SATA interface. The test system is equipped with a SATA harddisk. This screen is only relevant when you want this system to boot from USB harddisk. Last there is a screen called Р В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎв„ўHard Disk Boot PriorityР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎС™. Next there is a setting called Р В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎв„ўBoot Other DevicesР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎС™, which can be Disabled or Enabled: This BIOS offers many options for a Boot Device, but unfortunately there is neither a Р В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎв„ўUSB-memorystickР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎС™ or a Р В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎв„ўUSB-HDDР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎС™ setting. The three most logically related are called Р В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎв„ўFirst Boot DeviceР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎС™, Р В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎв„ўSecond Boot DeviceР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎС™ and Р В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎв„ўThird Boot DeviceР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎС™. In this BIOS there are multiple settings related to booting.
