Handy utility for UEFI based systems
by Ben Mustill-Rose 26 Dec '14

26 Dec '14

Hi all, If you have a UEFI based system you can use the below utility to choose a boot device from within Windows - E.G. you can insert a CD or a bootable USB device and this tool will make your device boot from it at the next restart. Out of 3 systems that I've tried the tool on it's worked on two of them & the third one seems to be having problems with booting from other devices regardless of the method, so it's not really fair to blaim it on the tool. The tool is called Boot Next and can be downloaded from this http://www.boyans.net/bootnext/bootnext.html page. Unfortunately the author has decided to impose fairly strict rules as to who can download the tool so your milage may vary. I'm more than happy to answer questions about the tool off list if for what ever reason someone wants to go that root. Hope everyone's enjoying the holidays. Cheers, Ben.
