Solution
'Aspire 5253' is the model of your Laptop. And, from what I've seen, F2 during POST is the usual method to go to BIOS in Acer laptops, so after pressing F2, you're indeed in the BIOS

The 'Setup utility' is usually the BIOS in many older OEMs and even af MoBos. If options like 'Hardware Monitor', RAM settings, Advanced settings, etc are present, or even one of them, then it is the BIOS.
Thanks for the fast response
