I don't have any USB drives (Jump Drives) plugged in. It was working only when just the two OS HDD were plugged in, but if I plugged in any other HDD (spare ones/additional) it would stop working correctly. I went into BIOS adding the PROMPT option at start up and placed BOTH OS HDD one under...
Thanks ChrisHirst, sometimes it seems that it is just your own machine that is trying to 'confuse' you; but placing the Bios Prompt at StartUp is not too bad and it works if you can't access it directly if a 'no menu' is triggered again.
Appreciate your input. Regards.-
Set the BIOS Configuration to Prompt to either go to NORMAL Startup or into BIOS at the Start.
I did enter at the prompt and moved the OS drives one after the other at the top of the list and it is now working Normally.
It was the same format that the Win 8.1 had and I Formated it while...
Ooops ...... Jumped the gun.
Not the Tablet, seems that if the 2 HDD are alone, they work perfectly, I mean, if nothing else is plugged in.
I add another drive (extra drives I have on the system) Pam !! the boot menu does not show up anymore.
Is there a way to get the Boot Menu up without...
OK, got it solved ............
1) I went to the Original Win10 HDD and found out that both Operating Systems were on Boot (msconfig) even though I was on just one HDD.

3) That didn't solve the...
Reading all the commands on the BCD Editor, still deciding ( [ponder])which one is the appropriate one to choose to 'fix' the issue I'm having. Don't want to make it worse!!
This is what I did: Having HDD 1 with Windows 10 installed I booted from USB stick and Formated HDD 2 (Where Win 8.1 was) and installed Windows 10. It installed just fine but now to get to HDD 1 with the 1st Windows 10 I have to unplug HDD 2. The Boot option for F2/F10 does not show up at System...
I have two HDD with Windows 10 installed in them and can't get the system to show the F2-F10 boot menu at start, if Both drives are plugged in, If I unplug one drive the menu shows up. When Both are plugged in it goes strait to HHD 1 and to get to HHD 2 I have to unplug HDD 1.
I was able to...
I have this ACER Laptop that is running Windows 7, when battery was down to 7% it would advice your to look for alternate power source. Now (or lately) when the battery goes down to about 10% it just SHUTS DOWN and when I plug it with the AC supply I get the Black screen asking if I want to...
When I get the Windows Update ALL the Windows Defender files show FAILED.
I have Kaspersky and Malwarebytes installed as protection and Win7 64bits.

Thanks.-

I have kept that PC clean as a whistle, periodic dust buildup removal, I have 6 fans running and the Thermal threshold is about 60C, pretty cool !!

When I get the MOBO out...
