Cannot get into the bios

Attila
Level 7
I am not able to get into the bios at all. I hit f2 and just goes to windows 8 login. I spammed the button, still nothing. It simply will not allow me to get into the bios. I tried f12, f1, I tried every Asus combination possible.

Any help please.

I have the Asus g75v

What do you mean f2 than power button? That doesn't do anything =(

Attila, try this:

1. win + i key; choose power > restart
2. spam esc or f2 key during boot.

I tired this. Doesn't work.. I start spamming it even before I hit the power button.

how about following what Mike_Lu@ASUS suggested, press and hold the f2 key, then power on; release the f2 key only when you see the BIOS screen.

to me the restart method always works. just give it a few tries.

i have an old model of g55vw by the way, and with an old BIOS (209).

edit: also, i don't have w8's default fast boot option turned on.

As you posted in your edit, @rewben, I think I saw somewhere in a previous thread that it's important to disable Win 8 fast boot to enter the BIOS.

yes, you're right drew; i just remembered that 😕

edit: here is the way to turn fast boot off

i have disabled hibernate; so i don't have this option in my power settings.
