The setting that controls the boot order and can potentially affect the ability to access a flash drive with the OS image prior to loading the OS is: B. UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface). UEFI is responsible for initializing hardware components and loading the operating system. It provides options for configuring the boot order, including specifying which devices the computer should attempt to boot from first. If the UEFI settings are not configured to allow booting from USB flash drives or other removable media, the computer may not recognize the flash drive with the OS image during the boot process.
