Have you ever had a working PC that wouldn't go into the BIOSmode?

Yes. More than once. Usually it is a matter of the BIOS mode bein Some years ago you could access the bios form any power icon with a combination of a control key and the mouse. It has been year and I can not find my notes for the exact steps. HOWEVER this also works Method #2: Use Windows 10’s start menu As computers have become more technologically advanced than ever, they boot up in seconds before our eyes. This leaves little room for pressing any hotkeys and can leave those looking to get into their BIOS settings puzzled. For PC users who aren’t able to catch that tiny window to use their hotkey, this method of entering BIOS can be completed through your computer settings. Step 1. Access your Windows settings Navigate to your Windows start menu and select “Settings” located on the left panel. You can also access your Windows setting by using Windows shortcut keys Windows + I. Step 2. Select “Update & security” Within this window, you may need to scroll down to find the “Update & security” button. Step 3. Select “Recovery" Step 4. Click “Restart now” Under “Advanced startup” you will see a “Restart now” button that allows you to reboot your PC for configuration or restoration. After your PC boots back up, you will be met with a special menu that gives you the option to “Use a device,” “Continue,” “Turn off your PC,” or “Troubleshoot.” Step 5. Select “Troubleshoot” Within this window, select “Advanced options” then select “UEFI Firmware Settings.” This will allow you to enter BIOS on your Windows 10 PC. Step 6. Confirm your restart If your PC is running Windows 8.1 or Windows 8, these methods will also work for your older operating system. |
