remote desktop cant boot because of external hard disk
Hello experts,
is there any way to remotely change the boot order of a desktop?
We have two remote pcs that cannot restart at all since they were added each a 2 tb external hdd.
So now we cannot restart them unless we have someone there...
Can we change the boit order remotely? and how ?
or we need to go there once more no other way?

Again: if USB, then no problem.
Booting from USB - if configured at all - will fail, resulting to try the next possible devices which would be your hard drives ->normal startup in any case.

Thank you very much!
guillermo, how was your problem solved??
This would be no problem if the external drives are USB connected.
