Odd, minor issue
I tried installing Photoshop Elements 6 in Win 8 compatibility mode. It seemed to install OK, shortcut and everything...but when I rebooted as requested it just hung there. Whatever it did, it must've been drastic (though Linux, of course, still booted).
NOTE TO ALL 11 USERS: DO NOT, EVER, INSTALL PS6!!!
Then I had a brainwave. The drive was in fact cloned from my original 2TB drive. Okay, I thought, I know that works, so clone it again!
I did (took ages), and it's working.
But not quite smoothly.
When it boots up from power down, it first tries to reboot from 2 network options (as it did when I first installed the 2TB drive to clone it - at the time I dismissed it as an unimportant oddity), and fails. Then it goes on to Windows, which boots up fine. Not to worry, I thought, that's the UEFI misbehaving. So I got into it via Windows and changed the boot order. As a test once it'd booted up to Windows, I powered down and then powered up.
It still did it. Okay, it's a minor niggle, as it does work, but how do I tell the UEFI it should definitely boot up from Windows first? More to the point, how do I get it to remember that setting?
