I want to choose in the bios from which disk I want to start. I have 3 disks with an operating system in the HP8100.
Normaly in every bios I known I can choose which disk is the starting disk.
How do I do that in the Bios from the 8100??????

I do not have HP-8100 system but my systems that allow selecting a different hard drive to boot from ALL require legacy boot.
I suspect you will have to disable secure boot and enable legacy bios.

@ruudb -- as soon as you power-on the computer, start tapping the ESC key, until you see a "menu", e.g., "press F9 to select boot device; press F10 to enter BIOS setup", and so on. Then, try that "F9" key, to display all the disk-drives that you have listed, within BIOS SETUP, as containing "bootable" operating systems.
