In a PC, the BIOS generally detects storage mediums in the following order:

1. Floppy disk (if your computer has one)

2. Optical drive

3. Primary hard disk

4. Other hard disks

However, on some computers, you need to go to a menu during the boot sequence (on my computer, I need to press F12) to boot from mediums other than the primary hard disk.

Can an ignition interlock device be required for first DUI conviction?

Yes, an ignition interlock device (IID) can be required for a first DUI conviction, depending on state laws and the specific circumstances of the offense. Some states mandate the use of an IID for first-time offenders, particularly if their blood alcohol concentration (BAC) was significantly over the legal limit or if there were aggravating factors involved.
