I am using Ubuntu 14.04 since it launched. All of functioning of bios and grub where running properly. One day I used boot-repair for some reason. After few days I noticed that Bios set-up doesn’t start on hitting F2 (Samsung NP300E5X-S01IN).

I didn't get the reason so I contacted service centre. Due to some other problems, they changed my motherboard. Hard-disk had windows 8 and ubuntu 14.04 installed before. With new motherboard, the grub got disappeared , windows 8 was starting directly and bios set-up started opening on F2, I thought problem is solved.

So, for getting grub to boot ubuntu , I live booted pendrive , installed boot-repair and ran recommended option. Grub installed. It now give option for both OS, but again not bios set-up doesn't open on F2. Tried many times. On hitting F2, it gets directed to Bios.

Can anyone help me in understanding problem ?

Thanks in advance ...
