Hi,

I’ve opened my MacBook Pro to see a broken LCD so I can’t see anything on screen. I’m guessing I closed the lid too hard but whatever, I’ll soon be paying for that.

Problem is I run boot camp and the MacBook was last booted into Windows. The BootCamp utility can’t see the Mac volume as it is now APFS so I can’t reboot into High Sierra from within Windows.

I’m currently trying to use the Startup Manager while blind as this screen does not get projected to an external display.

Can anyone running BootCamp reboot into the startup manager, advise me on the order that the boot volumes are shown and let me know if this can be navigated completely with the keyboard? I figure once High Sierra boots I can type in password and have that appear on the external display.

So far I have got either Windows 10 or the Recovery partition (which also doesn’t project to an external display) to appear.
