The selection of a boot device from Boot Device Hotkeys affects only the current startup operation the next time the computer is started it will follow the boot priority setting established in BIOS Setup (see the BIOS Setup method, above). Not all models support the hotkey for the internal LAN adapter, even though they may support booting from LAN.

The selection of a boot device from any of these boot device menus affects only the current startup operation the next time the computer is started it will follow the boot priority setting established in BIOS Setup (see the BIOS Setup method, above). On models that offer a text boot device menu, simply press the key corresponding to the desired boot device from the list of available devices. On others, it may say Press C to boot from CD-ROM. On still others, there may be a row of colored icons representing the various boot devices (HDD, FDD, CD, LAN, PCMCIA, etc.) Press F12 while these icons are displayed, and then use the arrow keys to move the cursor from one to another. As new models are released, the wording of these prompts may change. On some models this prompt reads Press F12 for boot menu.

The time allowed for detecting the keypress is very brief, so you'll need to be both prepared and quick.

From BIOS Setup (semi-permanent setting)īoot priority specifies the order in which the computer searches for a bootable operating system.

Toshiba PCs that offer alternate boot devices allow you to specify which device to boot from (the 'boot priority') by three methods:

These devices include USB diskette drives, CD-ROM discs, a local area network (LAN), and PC Card (PCMCIA) hard disk drives. Many Toshiba PCs can boot (start Windows, or another operating system) from devices other than the built-in hard disk (HDD) or built-in diskette drive (FDD).
