Hello everybody!
When I power my computer on, there is a black screen and it goes straight to the log in screen. I can fully use Windows. All I'm trying to do is open up my bios screen.
I tried couple of methods, both didn't work.
Method 1: going to advance options and restarting (when I choose restart and boot to firmware... etc, my computer goes to sleep mode or something)
Method 2: pressing f1 - f10 and the delete key. None of that worked

you can try resetting cmos, it should let you in then as most bios need you to set them up again after a reset.

Thanks you for responding :D
But my problems persists with the bios logo not even appearing. I have a MSI MB and when I turn my PC on, it shows a dragon and different keys I can press to alternate my start up. I Might have switched something in my settings because that logo doesn't appear anymore. I just don't remember :??:

Wow so I feel like an idiot. When I moved my computer to a different location I reconnected the dvi cable to my 2nd videocard. I switched it to my first and then what do you know. My bios screen returned haha
