How to enter flex 10 bios?

Ok, seems like a daft question, right?
I bought one of these a few days ago and I cannot find a way of getting into the bios, other than via windows 8.1 itself. If this goes wrong, and I cannot boot it, I need to know how to get into the bios from the off state.
As far as I can tell there is no novo button to talk of, and I have googled the hell out of trying to find an online solution, all to no avail. I refuse to believe that there is no way of getting in to the bios on a computer, so, does anyone have any idea how it's done?
I don't want to actually change anything at this point, but at some stage in the future I may, also, I see this question has been asked before but without an answer.
Help.... Please..

Hi and welcome to the forum!
Lenovo's manual says:-
To start the Setup Utility program, do the following:
1. If your computer is already on when you start this procedure, shut
down the operating system and turn off the computer.
2. Press and hold the F1 key then turn on the computer. When you hear
multiple beeps, release the F1 key.

Hope this helps.

How To: Enter the system BIOS at Startup in Windows 8.1

I will have a new (to me) Satellite S55-B5258 with preinstalled Windows 8.1.
I would like to change the boot order so that I can use my bootable USB stick.
I want to make a system image before anything gets installed. (Macrium Reflect)
For possible "panic restore" when all else fails.
I have read several methods using F2 and/or the ESC key.
Which is the real method?
Second thought:
Maybe an original image is not really needed if there is a Recovery option once the sysatem is up and running??
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You can do that without going in the BIOS(UEFI). At the Start screen, type System Settings and hit Enter. There is a Boot Options tab there where you can make your boot choice. However, for when you do need to get in the BIOS in Windows 8.x, Shutdown the computer while holding down the Shift key. Then, on Startup, hold down or rapidly tap F2 while hitting the Power button.
Yes, you do have a Recovery partition on your HDD and you were advised to make recovery media when first using your machine for even further protection in the future. It's up to you whether you wish to make even further images. I do and I use Macrium also.
You need to spend some time with your User's Guide particularly starting on page 46 "Recovery of The Internal Storage Drive".

How to enter a BIOS/UEFI password in T420?

Hello, I don't need to remove the UEFI supervisor password, I know what it is. The problem is that I can't get it to prompt me for that password! Pressing Thinkvantage button + F1 just prompts for the power-on password, and I'm never asked to enter the supervisor password so that I can enable the VT & VT-d settings. This is really critical, I can't run VirtualBox without it.
Can anyone explain how to enter it? Am I getting to the BIOS settings the wrong way?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Power off, start it up, enter Supervisor password at Power On password prompt.
Hope this helps!

How to enter BIOS settings on Equium L10?

Please can someone tell me what button i press too get into the bios setup at the start when i switch my pc on cos i have tried every thing, but nothing works.

Hello
Every time when you switch the notebook ON you can see at the bottom left hand site the short instruction how to enter BIOS settings. In your case you must use F2 button. Please keep it down immediately after switching the notebook ON.
Generally the Toshiba notebooks are delivered with two different BIOS versions (BIOS producer):
- TOSHIBA BIOS: enter using ESC and F1 button
- Phoenix BIOS: enter using F2 button.
According the specification your unit has Phoenix BIOS.

How to enter BIOS on new Satellite L300?

Hi
Just bought today.... I am anxious to install other operating systems but can't figure how to enter BIOS to enable it to boot from CD.
Any help appreciated

Hi.
Have you read the User Manual? I think it will be somewhere in the book. However, for this gen, you can access BIOS by F2 and boot up list with F12
Enjoy.

How to enter bios pavilion dv7

I cannot figure out how to enter bios on my pavilion dv7-1135NR, i need to figure out how to change boot order!

I have installed a new motherboard into my HP Pavilion.
I have tried to update the BIOS for this motherboard and since doing this it is not possible to change the sata controller mode from RAID to anything ese - it will not save the settings.
I have replaced the CMOS battery and changed the CMOS jumper but nothing has worked. Can anyone provide the original BIOS file so I can try and re-flash it?
Or does anyone have any other suggestion?
Many thanks

How to enter the new UEFI( BIOS ), if UEFI does not respond to F10(esc, e.t.c.) at startup?

1) I bought a HP 255 .. preloaded with licensed windows 8.1 (overpaying about $ 150 compared with the same nout. with pre-dos ,
2)yesterday update the "BIOS" -UEFI- from HP website and on the recommendation and with the help of an assistant "Assistant HP",
3)reload (successfully re-entered the windows 8.1), and
4) wanted to put second OS (ubuntu Linux without removing the windows 8.1, which is totally legal action and a 100% user right !) in accordance with the instructions http://www.everydaylinuxuser.com/2014/05/install-ubuntu-1404-alongside-windows.html. (way before such procedures have been much easier! Have to completely abandon the windows!)
5)After compression partition with win8.1 and release empty partition for second OS( Linux), off in the control panel windows "Fast Boot" I turned off the laptop (which is turned off and not in sleep mode switched). entered the UEFI, Turn off secure boot and Legacy Boot (probably in vain!)
After saving and rebooting the laptop completely refused to accept from the moment of "power On" the F10 (et al. Keys esc, F2..12), and showed only "black screen" without any symbols and inscriptions, though, and respond to Ctrl-Alt-Del (blinking backlight -reload). external monitor also showed "No Signal".
If I understand correctly, UEFI has been "upgraded" (not for the better by m.), And then at boot became a special check windows loader (type bootx64.efi) th right?
1) where (is there?) correct installation instruction 2nd OS (for example Linux Ubuntu), without removing the pre windows 8.1 (with the new UEFI)?
2) what can be done? How can I enter the UEFI-"BIOS" to fix options (if i have not CD with windows8.1 liveCD, but have backup of pre-inst win8.1 from nout)?

You can do that without going in the BIOS(UEFI). At the Start screen, type System Settings and hit Enter. There is a Boot Options tab there where you can make your boot choice. However, for when you do need to get in the BIOS in Windows 8.x, Shutdown the computer while holding down the Shift key. Then, on Startup, hold down or rapidly tap F2 while hitting the Power button.
Yes, you do have a Recovery partition on your HDD and you were advised to make recovery media when first using your machine for even further protection in the future. It's up to you whether you wish to make even further images. I do and I use Macrium also.
You need to spend some time with your User's Guide particularly starting on page 46 "Recovery of The Internal Storage Drive".
