Thanks guys.
One thing I forgot to mention is that all the monitors are HDMI and I feed them from the HDMI port on the MSI B550-A PRO board which is driven by the on processor video.
@Dave, yes this is what I see at startup directly after the UEFI boot logo. There is only one partition marked as active startable on the SSD and the 2.5inch win 7 disk.
@Tom, that is what it appears to be although just how much influence using the HDMI port has I don't know. As to the version of Air-boot, I assume there must be a way of finding out from the program code.
@Pete, I'll look into that but I seem to remember it is for booting different versions/configurations of windows.
At the moment I do have a way of selecting which OS to boot but that entails entering the UEFI bios at start, selecting advanced mode, then selecting 'boot options', selecting the M2_1 (for ArcaOS) or the 2.5inch disk (for win 7), then saving settings and rebooting. Not the easiest path but doable just once a month.
Maybe I should dig out my old CD of Warp 4 and try using Boot Manager, I do have 4 SATA slots available for extra disks to allow experiments.
