Qosmio DX730 unable to access the BIOS settings

Hope someone can help with this.

have the PC DX730 for about 8 months now, and I remember that in the beginning when on your PC here briefly appears a message saying press "F2" to enter the BIOS Setup.
But lately, this does not happen and I don't know why.

Pressing F2 brings up the start of Windows instead of the BIOS Setup Menu.
Is it possible to restore the original start feature?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Hmm... can I ask what system do you use? It is Win 7 or 8 Win?

  • Satellite U940 - cannot start or access the BIOS settings

    I try to help with a HARD on a U940 disk failure. The laptop still works a failure has been (almost certainly) the entire HARD disk.

    I have a new HARD drive in place but I'm unable to access BIOS, and the machine does not start of course. Just a black screen while the computer is trying to do something...

    • Then put the F2 on does not work
    • Then put the F12 on does not work
    • Then put the ESC on does not work
    • Out the battery did not work
    • Out the battery and the power cord and the discharge by pressing the power button / stop for 60 seconds, did not work.

    I can't get to the BIOS. In my view, that the machine was based on the Intel hybrid disc stuff using the DDI in RAID before and this quick book has been activated. Of course, I am unable to clean the machine to stop more since I can't start up with the old drive.

    What I really want to do, is to put everything back. Get rid of any RAID stuff and put Windows on the new HARD drive. Any ideas how I can get into the BIOS to move all of the RAID or FastBoot stuff?

    It's really good that you posted this question. So far on this forum many people ask the same questions, but all have been at the origin of new machines of Win8.
    Now we have the situation with the old machine Win7 but with Win8 preinstalled.

    Solution for other people needed to proceed to a complete stop and after doing this, it was possible to enter the BIOS settings. Check it please http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2B03EY0002R01.htm

    This situation does not for me so here's a question for you:
    When you start your laptop, I guess you can see the Toshiba start screen. With F2 option is shown on the bottom of the screen?

  • Product: HP Pavilion Notebook-PC G7, cannot access the bios settings/turn off the keys f1 - f12, please help!

    I got this laptop PC in 2012, it is a series of G7, I'm pretty sure. My problem is that when I turn the computer off and turn it back on, there is no option to open the menu of the bios (esc) or any option besides. Just a symble blue HP directly in the middle of the screen with a symbol of little loading below him. I pressed ESC, f1 - f10 and virtually all other keys to try to access it. What I really want to do is to disable most annoying f1 - f12 function keys.

    I'm no longer under warranty and my operating system is Windows 8.  There is also no error at all, just no response what that's right don't charge up to login password screen.

    Please help and contribution is appreciated.

    Hi 2livewire4,

    Welcome to the HP Support Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

    I see that you are looking to access the BIOS of your laptop Pavilion. You can't access BIOS in the same way on Windows 8, because you have a faction of a second to get the right timing because of the quick loading of Windows 8 feature. This third party link will show you how to access the UEFI that will lead to the BIOS. You can also do it from the Windows 8 login screen as this Microsoft link will show. Here is a document from HP support disable the function on some models Fn key combination +.

  • How to access the BIOS on my Satellite 5205 settings?

    Hello

    I have a laptop of s703/5205 series of satellites. How can I access the bios settings? When I switch on I get the screen "Welcome to toshiba." There are some keys I press during the boot process? On my other laptop I usually press 'DEL' or 'F2 '.

    I would be grateful assistance as my portable computer touchpad and, when connected, the external mouse freezes during normal operation. Sometimes I can navigate with the keys alt & tab, sometimes everything crashes. Also I get error messages saying "device connected to the usb port not recognized" Although there is no device attached to my laptop. I tried to plug an external mouse to see if that solves the problem of touchpad but the mouse freezes also.

    I need to check the bios settings, bios access help would be really appreciated!

    Thank you all!

    Hello

    The keys to use are dependent on the age of the laptop and also what manufacturer of BIOS you have.

    Usually by pressing ESC will show the progress of the BIOS during the startup phase.

    Pressing F2 usually you will take in the BIOS Setup menu, press F8 brings you to the 'Start' menu (where you can select the safe, etc) and finally F12 will give you the selection of "Boot Device" menu where you can select the hard disk, CD-Rom, etc. as boot device.

  • How to access the BIOS Setup - Pavilion P6650z, BIOS Version 6.04

    I have a 2 years, Pavilion P6650z, BIOS Version 6.04, AMD Athlon II 250 dual-core processor. Using Microsoft havdetectiontool, I checked the processor is capable of virtualization hardware-so, but I need to enable it. Problem: I have not been able to get to where I CAN enable it. I can access the BIOS settings by pressing F10 on start up, but I do not see the choice for the configuration of the BIOS, either on the main screen or advanced Sceen. Instead of press F10, I tried the key ESC and F2 button without success.

  • How to access the BIOS on Satellite Pro 4600 settings?

    Guys,

    I received a Satellite Pro 4600, unfortunately this laptop has 2 and a half proceeding on this issue. The first is MS2000, then XP then an incomplete installation of XP. When I start the laptop, it asks which OS I want to use. I have a legal copy of XP that I bought and I want to reformat the computer laptop and put on a new install of XP, the problem is how to enter the BIOS to change the settings to boot to a CD?

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Steve

    Hello

    First of all you n t need to access the BIOS to boot from the CD.
    You can simply press the F12 key immediately after the laptop has been powered.
    It would show the available boot options.

    Alternatively, you can press the C button that would automatically allow the CD/DVD drive as the boot source.

  • Satellite Pro S500-14Z - how to access the BIOS?

    Hello

    on the Satellite Pro S500-14Z I can´t access the BIOS via F2 and can´t change the bootpriority through F12. By pressing F2 or F12 during startup, the S500 beeps and restarts. When you first start, I had access to the Bios and set the password and active supervisor module TPM. Since I have no access to the BIOS before Windows starts. Is there another key to access bios (I tried ESC, DEL, F1, INS) or how can I change the pw supervisor (I know my real password!) and disable the TPM?

    Thank you
    Karl

    Hi karlS_1,

    Normally you can access the BIOS if you press F2 before Windows starts. It works with an external keyboard?

    You can change some settings in the BIOS using Toshiba HWsetup. This tool is preinstalled on your laptop and you can change the order of boot with this tool.
