Windows 7: won't get past first post

Morzie · 08 Dec 2012

The problem is the BIOS settings and I can't get to BIOS to change the settings to fix it

By that I am assuming it powers on? Now you stated F10 now that is the factory default key the BIOS key is F2. Tap it it on power up. If you can't get the BIOS then we are in deep.....

*bump*

**Pauly** · 08 Dec 2012

Dont think there is a bump mate, if you cant get to bios/post then im not sure what we can do for you as that would suggest a hardware issue

The changes you made in bios only come into effect after power up has run the bios but now you say your not even getting that far ??

Hum did you flash the BIOS by any chance Morzie?

Mate some system specs would be good too.

Morzie · 08 Dec 2012

I have no idea what flashing the BIOS is, but if it is removing the little round battery for awhile, I already did that, and all I can tell you is that its Intel i7, NVIDIA geforce gt 540m, 8gb RAM, windows 7 HP

And I put in bump so that this post wouldn't be forgotten

People watch threads, no bump need. Your was in a few hours.
You don't have to be in Windows to go to BIOS, Basic Input/Output System.

To help us help you would you please add your systems specs? Here's how:SystemInfo See Your System Specs Under System Manufacturer/Model Number add whether it is a desktop or laptop and whether self built.

Log in to Seven Forums and you will be able to transfer the info directly to the specs page in your profile from within the System Info app.
After doing this your specs will be available in each of your posts. Click on My system Specs in the lower left of this post to see how it should look.

Full instructions are in the tutorial.

Also I repeat I can't get to BIOS, if I.could I wouldn't be asking for help, and two I can't use that program because I can't use my computer, this entire thread as been written on my phone
