Mike Walsh: No, no .... I can access the URL - it's just that I don't get the screens/options/menus that they say I'm supposed to. IOW, it all breaks down when you can't do what they say because you don't get the display(s) that they say you should see.
bigpup: I followed those directions precisely, but was unable to invoke
a "BIOS settings" menu. I get other screens/menus, but none that allow me to change the boot order permanently. Cutting to the chase, I can manually select the USB from which to boot, but I have been unable to change that setting to make it permanent ... and for now that's good enough. I am mortally sick of messing with this lash-up. Maybe I'll try it again in the future ... or maybe not.
