My startup window shows to press EXCAPE to enter bios. This will not work. I also have tried every F key and nothing will go into the option to change the boot order.The computer just continues on and boots from the hard drive.This did work a few days ago but not it will not.I want to completely wipe format, partition my SSD 500 GB drive and install a fresh copy of Windows 10.I have a HP KT376AA#AVA computer product with a Pegatron Corp Benicia 1.01 boardBios: American Megatrenda 5.43 Can anyone tell me what I need to do so I can boot from my bootable Windows 10 software disc?ThanksTom. If you're unable to access your bios by repeatedly pressing the correct F key or Esc repeatedly before the boot process completes, you can also hold down shift while choosing restart. Check this guide out it may be helpful to you or search 'Three Ways to Access the Windows 8 or 10 Boot Options Menu'-here are the keys that my computer pulls up for bios changes etc.
The boot order tells your computer which devices it should check first for bootable material. These devices include your computer's CD-ROM drive, the hard drive, any USB or external storage devices, and the network-if applicable. Each computer manufacturer typically has a slightly different way of modifying the.

It has to be pressed quick, before the boot cycle goes past a certain point. So, soon as you see the boot process starting, you need to press repeatedly until it interrupts the boot process and gets you into your bios. Paladin posted some good info, did you look over it? Alas, if you've tried all and are still unable to get into your HP's bios, you may have to ultimately contact their.
Cuustommmeerrrr Suppooorrrt Serrrvviiiice (try to imagine a deep, ominous voice while reading it lol). But before you contact customer support.As Paladin points out above, you've an older motherboard made by Asus. It has 2 x PS2 inputs for both your mouse and keyboard. If you're using a newer keyboard with a USB connection, it likely won't work until your OS has booted. You may need to use a genuine, older PS2 connection keyboard in order for your motherboard to recognize your actions on it before it boots.
A USB to PS2 adapter may also suffice. When you see your boot process starting, you should see a brief message. What does the message say you need to do to access the bios? With your older PS2 keyboard now connected to your mobo's KB PS2 input (the purple one), or possibly using your newer KB with a PS2 KB adapter (which shall also be purple), press the appropriate key(s) to access your bios and change it's boot order.
Please let us know if it worked, btw.If that doesn't work, your PS2 input(s) may be broken. After that point, I'd say call HP CS, or upgrade your system possibly when you can, since I doubt your sys is still under warranty, so HP will likely charge you just to talk to them, and will likely tell you the same things we've told you, or possibly ask you to give them remote access to your sys. In the end, that may end up costing you enough so that you may consider an upgrade instead.

Repeat NONE of them does anything, the computer just goes ahead and boots from the hard driveThanks. 'My keyboard has worked in the past in fact it did about a week ago.' Worked, as in it isn't working now, or you were able to access one of the commands you listed above using your current keyboard about a week ago? Did you access your bios specifically?
If so, it may be worth trying to restore your computer to an earlier setting. Try using a keyboard with a PS2 connector/adapter all the same, if you haven't, to access your bios at startup.Here's a link that may be useful if you're unfamiliar with restoring to an earlier point (which may allow you to access your bios at startup if you were able to do so before).
Looking to learn about game development? Are you a Linux enthusiast looking to test the claim that 'Linux runs on everything'? Perhaps you are a software developer who is looking to release for multiple architectures, and you don't have another MIPS Little Endian machine on-hand for testing your programme.
Whatever your situation there are a surprising number of reasons to install Linux on a Playstation 2, even sixteen years after it's release (boy do I feel old all of a sudden.), yet an equally surprising lack of documentation about it or how to install it.Now don't get me wrong, if you want to use the original Sony Linux Kit, or one of it's updated open source releases on a fat PS2 with a network adapter and an IDE hard disk you can find plenty of info. However this requires the acquisition of several things, and can be quite expensive, especially when it comes to the Sony Linux Kit itself. This guide will cover some basics about the PS2's native hardware, and it's hardware compatibility, and then we'll move on to how to install Linux on a wider variety of PS2.What CPU does the PS2 use?The PS2 uses a single core 'Emotion Engine' CPU, clocked at 295MHz in the original fat models, and 299MHz in newer slim models. The Emotion Engine is a 64-bit MIPS Little Endian CPU, with support for 128-bit addresses.How much RAM does the PS2 have?It has 32MB RDRAM and 4MB of eDRAM.What kind of GPU does it have?The PS2 uses the 'Graphics Synthesizer' GPU clocked at 147.4MHz, and is capable of outputting up to 1920x1080 graphics at 60Hz in 32-bit color.What external storage does it support?An unmodified PS2 supports Audio-CD, Video-DVD, and up to two memory cards of up to 128MB in size for game saves.
A PS2 modified with a software exploit also supports two memory cards of up to 128MB for general file management and storage, and browsing files on data-CD/DVDs via a 3rd party file manager such as uLaunchELF, as well as some USB 1.1 disks, with support for USB 2.0 disks being available on newer slim models via software support. A PS2 modified with a modchip has added support for data-CDs and DVDs without a 3rd party programme.Now on to the Linux installation: (a quick side note, if you just want to test or play around with Linux on your PS2, you can simply burn the image found here: link to a DVD and run this programme link via uLaunchELF from a flash drive or memory card with no setup required. Now on with the Linux!).
