1. Different computer manufacturer models have different F key to access Bios.
What make is yours ?

2. Usually it is either F2, F10, or F12.

3. In one of my laptops, Acer Aspire, I have had trouble going to Bios. I usually have to try my F2 key many times before I can get to the Bios.

You may want to try tapping the Delete Key to get into the bios.
It depends on the Motherboard and which CMOS chip is on it, but....
I believe those particular computers used a lot of Biostar Motherboards.

Both my gaming PC's are the delete key (one's an ASUS motherboard, the other is Gigabyte).

ps. expanding on what Trouble said, my old Biostar motherboard was the delete key too, I believe.

Thank for the about repry.

But, I have still not learned how I can come in to the Boot menu, where I used to choose between The last good winking boot, System safe start, start with only dos prompt ant other start?
