Hi,

I have upgraded to Win 10 and new GPU (GTX970), but now I am unable to enter BIOS setup. I have read somewhere that Win10 boots to fast, so maybe it has something to do with the OS? Before I got a screen that said press "del" to enter BIOS, this screen is not there anymore. I have of course tried to press the "Del" button at boot, but it goes straigth to Win10 boot. I have googled for a solution, but not found anything that works yet. Any advice would be really helpful!! I have SSD disks and Logitech G110 USB keyboard.

From another thread witht he same problem:
Code: 
The way I figured out how to get into BIOS was smashing keys, but later found a better way. If you wait to the 1st BEEP when the computer starts, keep hitting F8 until a message pops up, from there you can enter setup, which will take you to the BIOS. Also, if you try with different keyboards it can also help.

After win 10 boots, hold down shift while you click shutdown. Win8 & up dont really shutdown on modern motherbds; they do a hybrid shutdown and so they can 'fastboot' back up real quick. A shift-shutdown forces a real shutdown and should get you the 'Press Del' msg again

Thanks for Your reply, but I have also tried that With no Luck. The first screen that flashes for a brief second or so is "initializing Intel(R) boot agent GE v1.3.65 PXE 2.1 build 089 (WFM 2.0). This is followed by a American Megatrends screen which says "Amibios(C) 2010 American megatrends inc. Asus Pz68 deluxe/Gen3 ACI BIOS revision 0301. CPU Inte (R) Core (TM) I7-2600K CPU@ 3.40GHZ. Then it lists total memory, USB Devices and detected ATA/ATAPI Devices. But nowhere is the "press del to enter bios" to be found, and pressing "del" button repeatedly does not work either. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.....
