    How can I change the Boot Manager Screen?


    I used to receive a screen like this:-
    Attachment 358833

    but now I get this:-

    Attachment 358834

    Is there any way to change this screen?

    If the computer fails to boot you can try Macrium boot repair or manually troubleshoot using a Windows 10 iso.

    The Windows iso can be any Windows version:
    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/soft...d/windows10%20
    https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows11

    Boot to the WIndows iso:
    a) run startup repair > if not fixed
    b) run system restore >
    c) if not fixed then plan command prompt commands or Macrium boot repair or both

    Use Macrium Reflect Rescue Media to Fix Windows Boot Issues

    Hi, You need to re-enable Graphic mode in your BCD

    Code:
    BCDEdit /set
    bootuxdisabled [ on | off ]
    Disables boot graphics.

    graphicsmodedisabled [ on | off ]
    Indicates whether graphics mode is disabled and boot applications must use text mode display.

    graphicsresolution
    Defines the graphics resolution, 1024x768, 800x600,1024x600, etc.

    highestmode [ on | off ]
    Enables boot applications to use the highest graphical mode exposed by the firmware.

    novga [ on | off ]
    Disables the use of VGA modes entirely.

    vga [ on | off ]
    Forces the use of the VGA display driver.

    I never played with that... But it's where I would start.

    Use EasyBcdedit
    from
    NeoSmart.com
    choose the home free version
    When installed look for and choose METRO boot loader.

    I notice on the boot menu that only Windows 7 and XP are listed. I don't think the graphical boot menu (metro boot loader) came into existence until Windows 8.

    Confirmed - not available until Windows 8:

    Yes, I agree METRO not available to Win 8. However, Hairy Scot shows in his bio that he is running Win 10 ver 21 H2.

    @Hairy Scot, what happened to your Windows 10 install? Are you now just dual booting Windows 7 with Windows XP?

    I would suggest you use the method in the link I provided:

    To enable the graphical boot menu:
    bcdedit /set {default} bootmenupolicy standard

    I did try that BCDEDIT command, but to no avail.

    EASYBCD was no help since there are apparently limits on its functionality in a GPT UEFI setup.

    Now that I think on it, I went the GPT EFI route when I implemented my new system. My previous antique had use MBR for boot disk.

    However, I would think that there should be a way to get the graphic version on a GPT/EFI system.
    But it's not a train smash.
