I have a new Acer laptop (See Profile for spec) and trying get it to boot from a Macrium Reflect disk I made but no go booting from it so far. The boot menu needs setting up or it's something to do with Secure Boot possibly. I'm very new to W8 so any advice would be gratefully received as to getting it to boot off DVD. I tried making the inbuilt DVD player first device above Boot Manager but got a Secure Boot Fail... I've reversed this back to default. Also, I'm not familiar with the first boot device item BOOt Manager ...should this always be first? I am conversant with Macrium with W7 but not sure about the right way with W8.
