    Can't acces BIOS!


    (Don't know if this is the right section, if not, please move the thread)

    Hi, I've had a Sony Vaio SVE14AA11M and it has been giving me a multitude of problems. I'll be creating other threads on other forums for the other problems, but this one regards a problem I'm having with the bios.

    Basically, the issue I'm having is that I can't access it. I've tried pressing every function key,but there is no boot menu. This is a pain in the butt because I wanted to dual boot Windows 7 and Ubuntu to troubleshoot a few problems, but since there is no bios menu, I can't choose which operating system to load.

    Holding down the F2 key during boot up is supposed to get you into bios.

    F12 or F9 is the boot menu.

    Does it restart computer at all?

    I tried F9 and F12 and that did nothing. Aparently, F2 is the key you should prss, but the BIOS settings are VEEEERY limited, but I could at least change the boot mode from legacy to UEFI and now I can multi-boot, thanks.
