Aurora-R4 Bios A06 settings?
For those who are using our system as we shipped it but with A06, please boot into the bios and tell me what your Advanced Boot settings are -
Advanced Boot
Boot Mode = UEFI
1st Boot USB Hard Disk
2nd Boot USB Floppy
3rd Boot Network
4th Boot Hard Disk
5th Boot CD/DVD
6th Boot UEFI
7th Boot USB CD/DVD
Hard Disk Drive BBS Priorities boot order?
For those who added an SSD as the boot drive and made our HDD the storage device, what are your above settings?

Hey Chris:
Here's mine (haven't made any modifications after upgrading to A06) -
Boot Mode = UEFI
1st Boot USB Floppy
2nd Boot USB Harddisk
3rd Boot CD/DVD
4th Boot UEFI
5th Boot CD/DVD
6th Boot Network
Hard Disk Drive BBS Priorities boot order?
Note: I only found one thing in error when I upgraded to A06 and that was because Windows update stated I should check for updates and then it abended.
Found the date was reset to 1/1/2011 and the time was an hour behind.
Once I reset the date/time, everything seems to be working fine for me.
Hope that helps.

Hi daddyz.
Yes, I can change it as well.
Actually, thanks for asking.
I had adjusted my clock/time when I rebooted, but today when you asked I went in and saw the date was fine, but I have my clock set to display the 24 hour clock instead of the 12 and I found it was actually set to pm. (was set to 19:24:06 and should have been 07:24:06)
(kept wondering why Facebook was telling me a birthday was happening last night, when it wasn't supposed to be that date until today ...ha ha)

Ah ok.
The only thing I can change on the entire page is the parm that Enables or Disables it.
It's currently set to Enable.
Other than that, I can't change any other parm on that page.

Well, if Windows 8 is any indication (this BIOS was for Win 8) of what's coming and people take to it. I think down the road you may see that you have to go this way. Seems Microsoft is locking a lot of things down with this new operating system. So far this new BIOS update isn't that bad. I don't really overclock much anyways.
