    I have ASUS VivoBook S400CA and i have been trying to access the BIOS but i just can't. I tried various buttons (F1, F2, F8, F10, F12, Insert and Delete) but they all don't work wwhether im pressing it once or holding it.

    Is there some kind of restriction that doesnt allow me to access it? Is there some other key that goes to the BIOS? I really need help.

    The timing can be tricky, especially when the system support fast boot. Asus BIOS utility is usually accessed by tapping (or preferably, holding) the DEL key immediately after powering the system on.

    You can also access it by tapping or holding the ESC key; that will bring up the boot options menu, which has the "Enter Setup" option.
