How Do You Get To BIOS For An HP Computer?
Hewlett-Packard (HP) produces a large variety of computers for the office or home use as well as for gaming. Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) is motherboard integrated firmware that controls all computer hardware. BIOS on HP computers typically allows the user to configure hard drives and on-board audio and video controls, as well as change the boot sequence of boot devices. Refer to your computer manual to find out a key to access BIOS. On the majority of HP computers such a key is “F1,” but it also can be “F10,” “F2” or “F12.” In Windows Vista, click “Start” and select “Restart” for computer rebooting. In Windows XP, click “Start” then “Turn off Computer” and select “Restart.” When the “HP” logo appears on the screen, immediately press the key determined in Step 1–for example, “F1”–to enter BIOS.
