[QUOTE="ferrarr, post: 1802907, member: 376394"] Some options to try; After a good startup, restart your iMac? This may help “confirm” proper settings. After a good startup, check to confirm your hard drive is selected as the current startup drive. Look in System Preferences > Startup Drive, then select the drive and select “restart”. Try NVRAM reset, [URL]https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204063[/URL]. Try an SMC reset, [URL]https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295[/URL]. Also, try to boot into Safe mode, [URL]https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262[/URL]. One last suggestion would be to boot into Recovery, and run Disk Utility > Repair Disk, to check your hard drive for errors, [URL]https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201314[/URL]. [/QUOTE]
