How do I get to laptop bios to reset it? It has NVS 4200M also so I thought I should disable the integrated Intel controller. Now cant see anything or the bios. Hope I don't have to disassemble it to reset bios. It does have hdmi on side, could I hook to my tv on PU?
Thanks
Bill
This is 1st time ever tried internet answer so I might not even be able to find this back. My email address is wrootz@juno.com, just in case.

Try Fn + F8 this will toggle between laptop and external display. Might need to press numlock first to use Fn key, will be a small key on the keypad with a padlock icon on it.

You'll have to refer to your laptop manual to find out that, search for anything related to clear/reset CMOS.

As it turns out, just removing the laptop battery and re-inserting it reset the bios to very large print but allowed me to enable intel controller again. The confusing thing is that how do you know if the nvs 4200 is running or the intel integrated controller? They both show up in the device manager as enabled. I updated the nvs 4200 driver but then 15 min my macro runs 2 xs slower so I thought the nvs wasn't running the macro, and disabled intel one it to force the nvs, thus my problem
