Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

I just bought a new GigaByte MB and need to get into the BIOS to disable the
on board sound. Please tell me how to enter the BIOS. Thanks.

It should tell you on the first screen it paints, like hitting Esc, Del,
F1, F8, or whatever. If you want specific answers, provide specifics.
So far, all you've said is you own a Gigabyte motherboard. They make
more than one model. Didn't your motherboard come with a manual? If
not, they are available online at
http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Motherb [...] _List.htm.

Do a search with your motherboard model and one or more of the answers
should get you to the gigabyte home page. You can then go to the
support section and download the manual which will help yo ion the
future. If the first screen goe by to fast I would try esc and the del
as the first shots but the manual is easier.

In the extremely unlikely event that your PC's manual doesn't
contain the needed information, try one or both of the following:
