i have a client who cannot get into Windows 10.
Initial boot says “reboot and select proper boot sequence or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key”
I can then Boot to Windows 10 CD if I want to.
Or
I can cntrl-alt-del to pound f2 and get into BIOS.
But, when I am in Bios. under the Boot settings, there is no sequence choice for me to select. This case looks like one where his boot sequence is wrong. Maybe he has the PC booting to the DVD drive, maybe a USB flash drive....either way, I cannot tell because this ASUS Bios is not like any bios I have seen.
By the way, the last Bios was updated in 2014. So, should I try and flash the new bios somehow?
I also can boot to my Windows 10 CD. I can 'repair' or 'reinstall'. Under the 'repair' option, the computer does not let me do anything as it says it cant find an image file(for example) or it cant find thtsequence for me? e disk that the restore point is usually found.
Something is screwy here. I loaded my Boot CDs that have various programs but I couldnt tell if any were applicable here.
Question: WHat if I just reinstall WIndows 10 on top of itself? Would that recreate a healthy boot sequence for me? No loss of files or folders?
