Change boot priority order?
My BIOS is version A16 and the computer Inspiron 7720.
When I go to the Boot Priority section of the BIOS settings it shows that "Legacy Boot" is enabled.
Following the on screen instruction I use the Down Arrow to select from the list:
"+USB Storage Device"
I then attempt to move this list option to the top of the list using the "+ / -" keys.
There is no response. The item does not move up in the list.
Quite regularly I boot into Ubuntu from an external USB drive.
I can press "F12" at startup and choose to boot from the "+USB Storage Device" there.
The ability to press "F12" passes really fast though and the opportunity is often missed,
leaving me to go through the Windows 7 boot up procedure, then a restart to try again.
I would prefer to be able to set this boot order in the BIOS settings.
Please can you tell me how I can do this?
