Information processing apparatus and program

An information processing apparatus comprising:

• a first recording medium which stores a first program;
• a connection section which is capable of connecting to a second recording medium outside of the information processing apparatus;
• a BIOS by which a priority level of a boot drives is set that the second recording medium capable of connecting via the outside has priority level 1 and the first recording medium has priority level 2;
• an instruction input section to input, while the information processing apparatus is in an activated state, an instruction for booting a second program stored in the second recording medium that is connected to the connection section on booting of the BIOS;
• and
• a controller which, performs a check when booting of the BIOS, if the second recording medium is connected to the connection section and the instruction has been input from the instruction input section while the information processing apparatus is in an activated state;
• in case when a state that the second recording medium is connected to the connection section and the instruction has been input from the instruction input section is confirmed when booting of the BIOS, the control section boots the second program, and in case when the state is not confirmed when booting of the BIOS, the control section boots the first program.
