Well I've tired , Still no deal . This notebook has a ssDrv I believe that the BIOS will not allow a change . The Windows boot is an image file and will not take off the the Boot manager flag for the UEFI pointer even though I have reoriented the BIOS with the Windows boot manager at last position ...
