    Hi all

    I have a bit of a strange problem with my new Ux21. I installed a BIOS password and now no matter what I try I cannot gain access to the BIOS setup at boot. I have tried holding Esc/F1/F2/F9/F10 and nothing works it just asks for my BIOS Password and then boots into windows.

    Everything is working as normal apart from that but I have the Sandisk 100 and want to switch it out, but before doing so need to make sure I can gain access to the boot menu.

    Any ideas?

    just to be clear, do you actually get a chance to try entering your BIOS password? or does it somehow whisk you away from the BIOS screen?
