How Do I Boot From a DVD - Dell AIO
I have my parents' 6 month old Dell All-In-One monstrosity. Since these is practically nothing on the chassis beyond the service tag number I had to use that to determine that it's a Dell Inspiron 24 5488 with a 64 bit Windows 10 OS. I have no idea if it's Home or Pro.I have a DVD with both Home and Pro, but I don't know how to set the BIOS to boot from it (or which OS to choose).When I start it I get a blue screen that gives me 'Your PC ran into a problem and needs to restart'. There's a percent counter that goes from 0 to 100, at which point it restarts. And does the same thing.If I hit F12 I get a screen headed 'Boot mode is set to: UEFI Secure boot: ON'. It gives me a Diagnostic option. It checks the Partition Table, the Boot Files and Windows Health. It passes all 3 with 'No Issues Detected. You can safely restart your system. Another reboot gives me the percent screen from the previous paragraph.If I hit F12 again I have no idea what to do to get it to boot from my DVD. I have UEFI Options of Windows Boot Manager,Onboard NIC (IPv4),Onboard NIC (IPv6)Other Options of BIOS Setup and DiagnosticsI've explained what Diagnostics does (does not) do. If I go to Bios Setup and tab over to Boot I get Boot Option Priorities #1, 2 and 3.Each Boot Option gives me 4 choices - Onboard Nic (IPV4), Onboard Nic (IPV6), Windows Boot Manager or Disabled.What happened to the good old days when you could select HDD, CDROM or USB Device? I have no idea what to do to get this to boot from a disc.
