To change the boot sequence, you must enter the "Setup" or "CMOS BISO/UEFI Setup" on your computer and change the booting sequence to use the USB drive/CD drive/Network adapter first. There are several ways to enter the setup depending on your computer manufacturer and model. During the booting stage a message will appear stating "Press DEL to enter Setup". As the message flashes only once on the screen, you must be quick to press the key before the boot sequence continues. Please note that the boot sequence may continue without any user intervention.
