How do you access your setup?

With a Dell...

Tap Delete key 1 time / second after start / re-start

Are you trying to get into the bios?

Its usually either the delete key or F2.

On the Dimension 4100 it is the F2 key. If Fast Post or Fast Boot is turned on these models you have to hit the F2 key very fast after powering the machine before it starts to load the OS.

On my Dell it is also F2.

What I want to do, is gain a knowledge of various makes, so I can set the boot device for re-installs
(Esspecially on older machines with Me or earlier OSs)

And to think..all those yrs. I used the DELETE key...go figure...

I believe HP uses F1...anybody?
