[QUOTE="ferrarr, post: 1801384, member: 376394"] Did you see at the bottom of the NVRAM page, the recommendation for SMC reset? Give that a try, and also remember, sometimes it may take multiple attempts to get these to work. Have you tried Safe Mode, [url]https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262?[/url] Also, try Apple Diagnostics, [url]https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202731[/url]. Also, this "[COLOR=#333333][B][U][I]System Preferences > Startup Disk is pointing to the correct drive[/I][/U][/B]" is the reason I said to select the drive and [/COLOR][COLOR=#333333]restart the MBP after selecting the drive in System Preferences. When the Mac is already started up, and there is only one startup drive, that will be the default drive, [B]at that time[/B]. You need to make sure the next time you restart/startup, the Mac knows what drive to startup from, so selecting and restarting will confirm that the internal drive is set as the default startup drive, even if you connect another disc/disk that is bootable.
