I have and asus P4B motherboard with Award Medallion Bios V6.0. Can somebody
tell me what command I need to access the CMOS. I have tried delete, F1, F2
and Esc but nothing works. When my system boots up I can only see the P4B
logo.

It should be Delete.

Sometimes the boot of extra controllers prevents Delete to come
through. You could try to disconnect drives on such one.

Sometimes an usb keyboard can also cause such problems. Then use a
ps/2 keyboard.

Further for some boards cold boot is necessary.

Well, actually I don't have hands on experience with P4B.

best regards

John

It's usually del on an Award.

Wait for the keyboard lights to flash then hit it once per second.
(thats my usual trick - too often and you fill the keyboard buffer)
