    Okay so I want to get into the thing that is similar to a BIOS on a windows PC, forgot what it's called. But everytime I enter the key combinations when I boot it (command + F + O + OPTION keys I think?) it just boots to the OS, I've tried heaps of times and it doesn't work, I've tried holding and tapping the keys.

    This also occurs when trying to boot off a CD

    What do I do?
