How do I change default boot sequence?

I just got a K8T Ne0 FIS2R.  I am booting to a SATA 120G drive that has Win XP Prof loaded up.  When I attach my IDE drives, I have to stop the post (F11) to manually point to "BBS-0 RAID" or my machine will default to an IDE drive (which ever is plugged in) and give me "NTLDR not loaded."  
Can I change the default boot sequence (i.e. so that I don't have to manually stop-n-point every time)?  
All my drives (1 SATA, 2 IDE) work once I point to the right startup device (SATA 120G).
Thanks for any helpful hints.

Good luck.    
I recommend that you review the advice that you leave others, as it is incomplete and incorrect....this, of course, is not to call you stupid, but it is to say your offering is.

  • Ibook g4 (2005) wont boot from cd.  always wants to boot from hd.  how do i change the boot sequence?

    so my ibook as i wrote will not boot from the cd rom.  it always wants to boot from the hd but i had the hd wiped b/c it had linux and it would not allow me to access the firmware.  now that the hd is clean i was able to access the firmware but i dont know how to change the boot sequence.  the starts to spin in the drive and acts like it want to boot from the cd but the cd just keeps spinning and i get a screen with a blinking question mark and smiley face.

    Hello and welcome to the support community.
    Why do you need to go into the firmware?
    If the disk is a boot disk like Mac OS X, then all you need to do is hold down 'C' key or the option key while the disk is in the drive and the iBook is booting up (After the chime)
    If either doesn't work, then there must be an issue with the disk not being a boot disk or corrupted. Alternatively a problem with the optical drive. You don't need to go into the firmware to change any boot selection.
    Hope this helps

    Generally it gets this info from the Identity in the preferences. Unfortunately, I know of no way to change the Login Name that shows up in the comments. I need to look at newer versions of Acrobat on other machines, this is AA8.

  • Itune was not installed and i defaulted to pictures to open iphone how do i change default to itune or nothing?

    Itune was not installed and i defaulted to pictures to open iphone 5s in windows 8, how do i change default to itune or nothing?

    You need to try and explain your problem again. I'm not exactly sure what you are trying to describe the problem as. What do you mean you defaulted pictures to open phone? What default are you referring to here?
    You can import pictures from the Camera Roll of the iPhone to the computer, and you can sync pictures from the computer to the iPhone using iTunes, but I don't know what you mean when you say defaulted pictures.

    They haven't been checked as Solved, it's an option for you to choose one if the answer has solved your problem. You can mark one answer as Solved, and two as helpful. Only you, as the originator of the topic, can see these buttons.
    Sorry for the goofed answer. Most people are looking to set the margins and I looked over that you were interested in the tabs.
    To save tabs in fixed positions that will appear with every new document, you must modify the default template. You can't open the template from the desktop. If you do, it will open as a standard document. You must open it from the Open dialogue box from within Word. With Word in the foreground, press Command+O and navigate to:
    /Users/your_account/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Office/User Templates/
    Open the file Normal.dotm
    Set your tabs and save the file. Close the template. All new documents will now open with those preset tabs.

  • How to set the default boot kernel in /etc/default/grub or /etc/grub.d

    and without messing with /boot/grub/grub.cfg  ?
    I need this so that new kernels show up but do not change the default boot kernel
    Is there a way to do it by file name instead of position within the menuentry / submenu list?
    I found some ubuntu and fedora sugestions but all by position, none by name
    AND how to set the kdump kernel as the default?
    Arch is putting this kernel under a submenu - would this pose problems for setting it as the default?

    In /etc/default/grub you can use the name of your entry you wish to use as default
    GRUB_DEFAULT='Arch Linux, with Linux core repo kernel'
    You can tell grub to stop using submenus by doing:
    GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU=y
    Or you can just make a purely custom menuentry in /etc/grub.d/40_custom if you'd like:
    menuentry "Other Linux" {
    linux <KERNEL IMAGE HERE>
    initrd <INITRD IMAGE HERE>
    EDIT: /etc/grub/default -> /etc/default/grub

  • Change default boot display, is it possible?

    Hi!
    I have MSI N660 TF 2GD5 OC card with two devices connected: 1) LCD monitor via DVI-D, 2) Projector via DVI-A.
    Every time I turn on the PC I don't see anything on monitor until Windows starts. Video output during boot process goes to projector even though it's turned off.
    Is it possible to change default output during system start up?
    Swapping connectors isn't possible physically, because DVI-A have extra pins that won't fit to another socket.
    If not, whats socket "default priority"? I'm thinking of buying hdmi cable for my projector to fix issue, will it help?

    The dual link DVI-I connector you are most likely using for the DVI-A device is the primary connector. If it is connected to any display it will always be used for primary display when starting.
    Solution would be to use the Projector with a DVI-A or I to HDMI or Displayport adapter or DVI-A or I to DVI-D adapter so you can use the monitor with the DVI-I connector.

  • How do i change default printer settings

    Hi
    I have an Epson Photo PX720WD.
    When I print photos directly from Finder they always print on the A4 plain paper I have in the tray rather than the 6 x 4 photo paper I want them to. The print option in Finder doesn't give me any opportuntiy to select settings like, for instance, iPhoto.
    I don't want to import all pics into iPhoto as i like being able to print them from Finder so does anyone know how I can change the settings, preferably to make the 6 x photo setting the deafult?
    Thanks in advance
    Steve

    Hi Eustace
    thanks for the reply.......I'm on 10.7.5 but I think the issue is that I'm not printing from an App, I want to print direct from Finder and when I select cmd/p or go through the file menu and select print the dialogue box doesn't appear or isn't an option.
    On all Apps that I've printed from cmd/p brings up the dialogue box or going to the file menu the print option looks like this:
    Print....
    Direct from Finder there are no dots meaning no dialogue box will appear.
    I have about 50 pics I want to print so if I can change the default settings then I can simply cmd/p every time knowing that they'll print the way I want them.
    I would also like to change the default settings as I print pics about 95% of the time so it's less hassle to change it when I want a plain A4 print.
    Any ideas?!!
    Thanks again
    Steve

  • How do I change default printer settings in Lion?

    I just got a new MacBook Pro and after installing the correct drivers and setting up my printer, it now prints 2-sided by default.  How do I change this default setting?
    I'm using a MacBook Pro, OS X 10.7.4, printing over AirPort to a KonicaMinolta office machine.  I had this same setup with my old MBP (OS X 10.6.8) with no problems whatsoever.

    Many vendors have started releasing printer drivers that have been defaulted to two-sided (duplexed). I would assume that the printer driver you are using on 10.6 is an older version compared to that being used on Lion.
    There are two possible actions. One is to create a Preset that has the driver set to single sided and use this preset when you don't want duplex. The other is to modify the PPD for the printer so that it is set to single sided by default.
    Making a Preset is easy. Open a document and select to print. Make the changes in the print dialog to set single sided printing and then open the Presets menu and choose to save this change for this KM printer. Then whenever you print to the KM just ensure the Preset is set to whatever name you gave to the single sided setting.
    As for modifying the PPD, this is done via the CUPS web page.
    To access CUPS, open Safari and type
    http://127.0.0.1:631/printers
    This will open the CUPS Printer administration page and will show all the printers currently configured on the Mac. For the printer that you wish to change the defaults for, click its name in the Queue Name column.
    Clicking the printer name will open the printer administration page for that printer. Here you need to click on the Administration drop menu and then select Set Default Options.
    This will show a new page with four menu headings (links); Options Installed, General, Banners and Policies. Select General. Scroll down the list until you find an entry like "Finishing" or something similar that shows the single sided and two sided setting. Change this from 2 sided to 1 sided.
    With the option selected you then need to scroll down the list to the bottom of the page where you will see the ‘Set Default Options’ button. Click this button and you will then be presented with an authentication window. Enter the account name and password that has been set as the admin for this Mac. And then press the Log In button. You will then see another page stating that the information change is completed.
    Now you can open an application and select to print and then check the output is set to single sided.
