Can't change boot sequence
Hello
I have a question. I can't boot normally in my windows anymore! on my optiplex 360, because I can't change my boot sequence. the only way I can boot into windows is a specific boot device every time I use the pc I need to press f12 to select the boot device manually. and I want it again that if I start up the pc I automatically get in windows. because I want this pc tho work normally as second pc for simple coding for discord bots! anybody help?
Plz help me out
Thanks for helping thinking for a problem

Are there any arrows to click which will move an item up or down in the boot sequence box?
it's confusing, but on mine, you can click on one of the drives, then click an arrow to move it up or down in the list.

There's no settings in bios for changing the order of devices to try to boot from?
Or, they can't be changed?
Post what bios version you have, maybe that will help.

I noticed there are newer bios (A07 I think), maybe worth a try if you can't get it working.

Could you share a copy of the invoice (image or PDF) so that I can validate the information for you?

To reset CMOs jumper you move the jumper from PSWD to RTCRST on motherboard as shown in the link pic, wait 1-2 min, move the jumper back to PSWD. (If you left jumper on RTCRST pc would not turn on).

Did you try reset CMOs jumper? When you do it keep pc plugged to power but no need to turn it on.
