    This is a very noob question but I am desperate and I have to ask, how the hell do I access the BIOS in the Asus G1S running Vista Home? I want to change the boot order and I have pressed esc and F8 during the splash and nowhere does it say it let me change it.

    Thanks in advance.

    Pressing "F2" during boot up should get you into the BIOS on the G1S, regardless of what operating system you are running. Just keep hitting it when it first boots up.

    By change boot order, do you mean you are trying to change the order of drives to change the primary boot device or do you mean that you are trying to boot multiple operating systems and want to change the order of that? You can only do the former of those two things in the BIOS as far as I am aware.

    Change that! Press "F2" during boot-up to get into the BIOS (I've edited my original post to reflect that). Sorry!
