Boot sequence

This feature allows you to change the sequence of devices that your computer attempts to boot from. If the computer cannot boot from the device you select, it attempts to boot from the next bootable device. You can use this feature to change the:
  • Current Boot Sequence — change the boot sequence for the current boot, for example, to boot from the optical drive to run Alienware Diagnostics from the Drivers and Utilities disc or to reinstall your operating system using an external media. The previous boot sequence is restored at the next boot.
  • Future Boot Sequence — change the boot sequence for all future boots, for example, to boot from the primary hard drive.
