    Hey everyone, my computer was not booting and despite attempting startup repair several replies. It would take me right to the repair tools menu upon startup. Anyway, I recovered the computer to an out of the box state. However, now I want to make some changes to my BIOS and realize that F2 suddenly does not take me to the BIOS setup. It simply has an option to select Windows 7 and press F8 for additional option when I do press F8 I am taken to the menu with Start in Safe mode etc.

    F12 only brings up a menu with the boot order i.e. from HDD, usb etc.

    Can anyone assist me in accessing the full BIOS setup?

    Does anyone know why the BIOS setup has seemingly disappeared?

    I would be grateful for any help and replies. Thank you.
