hey guys,
i'm trying make it so that i don't have to press f1 to go to windows when i start the computer. my friend set it for me before i had my motherboard rmaed, but now i can't figure out how to do it. i left my desktop at home and right now i'm in college, so i'm connecting to it using a remote connection. any help please? i'm using the dynamic bios access with the nvidia control panel. thanks in advance!

If it says Floppy Error, go into BIOS, set Floppy Drives A/B to None, and if there is an option for it, disable the FD controller itself. Then, the board should not bug you to press F1 anymore during POST unless there is another issue.

Thanks!
If I'm using the dynamic bios control, should i just disable removable device from the boot up cycle?
