Asus PC lost password change boot order question

[silverdale]

So I've a PC here off a relative ASUS Tower CM1735-Windows 10 but when I go into the bios and boot order there's only 1 selection Windows boot manager (hard drive listed)
I was going to use Hirens either from a CD or USB to delete old password but I can't get to change boot order, how do I change it to DVD drive or even USB ?

Not sure about Asus, but a few weeks back someone gave me a Tower to sort out with an unfamiliar BIOS, and i too had a similar problem. Firstly i had to change the BIOS to advanced (from simplified) then after a bit of confusion, i noticed that if i clicked on a specific area, there was a sort of hidden option to scroll down to the relevant setting.
(Hope it may help??)

Think i had to change it from UEFI back to legacy too?

Thanks but this is a ASUS UEFI BIOS Utility and I'm in EZ mode.
Theres a Boot Priority were you can drag the dvd drive in front of the UEFI but the DVD rom ain't showing .
