I have an old HP 8300 small form factor (SFF). I successfully installed Sierra 10.12.5 and it was mostly working fine (couldn't get iMessage working but that's a separate issue).

I installed a second hard drive and then installed windows 10 from an installation usb.

Now when I start up, instead of going to Clover boot screen it boots direct to Windows (no Clover screen). Obviously the windows boot has taken priority.

If I disconnect the Windows HDD, I get a windows boot error screen. I can click through a few options and select the clover EFI file, and it will successfully take me to the Clover boot screen and boot from there - so the original EFI for Clover is intact.

How do I fix this so I get back to the normal Clover boot screen - with Windows as a boot option too? I've tried lots of other threads but can't seem to work it out.

My boot options look like below.

If I disable Windows Boot Manager I just get a blinking DOS cursor.

SATA0 is MacOS and SATA2 is Windows 10.

Can anyone help me unravel this knot?

I just checked. Windows is Legacy (Edit sorry it is UEFI)
