south4769 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I have mavericks and windows 8.1 installed on my hard drive (mavericks was installed first) made 2 separate partitions for them. I need to boot them in UEFI mode from my bios (i can only boot the windows so far) the problem is, every time i try to boot from the mac partition it switches over to the windows partition and boots from that. for the record i have a dell inspiron 3520.

redneck Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I use a usb boot loader. you can also install boot loader of your choice on OSX, then boot to Windows. your last install is always the Master boot.
