Catching F2 on Boot to get to BIOS
Posted: Fri Jan 10, 2014 6:38 am
My Intense boots really Fast.
There a Samsung 840Pro 512GB 2.5" and a Muskin 480 MSATA
I can't seem to catch the F2 to get to bios setup.
It just speeds on by to the OS or boot drive or SHELL
I pulled to hard drive to get it to boot the USB to update the BIOS.
I was able to get into bios once. I checked the settings and enabled UEFI boot. On reboot w/o the C: OS boot drive installed or the USB key it just went to SHELL. the SECURE TIANO 2.2 screen went by way to fast. Pressing F2 did nothing. Now I'm using a RF Keyboard but I did NOT enable fast boot in BIOS. It should wait for a few seconds for the key press but its not.
It been this way since the original BIOS. I own two PC Intense Pro. They both have the issue. But the bedroom a bit faster.
Any ideas here why this happens. Normally I don't care I just want it to boot to windows. But some times I want to get to the bios setup. I'd like to wait 3sec on boot for the F2 press like a on a decent bios machine.
