Hey, I'm really frustrated because I can't access my BIOS.
Before when I had on board graphics, it was working fine, but then when I installed my new Diamond Radeon hd 7770, I couldn't go to my BIOS anymore.
On startup, my screen stays black for a while and then just displays the log in screen.
I'm using windows 8.1
I installed all the new drivers for my GPU can someone please help me????????

- On the Choose an option screen, click Troubleshoot and then click Advanced options.

- If a UEFI Firmware Settings option appears, select it. (It might be called something slightly different, such as Change UEFI Settings.) If no such option exists, skip the rest of these steps.

- On the UEFI Firmware...

Mhm... like Ubrales said just keep pressing the button that usually takes you into BIOS. You don't need to actually see the message "Press (whatever key is there) to access BIOS" displayed to be able to access it.
