hello,

 

ik heb gedrukt op f10 voor de bios. wil graag bios resetten. alleen hoe doet het niet met f10. 

de reden is dat de computer traag is met alle windows die ik heb. xp, 7 en 10.

heb net de batterij eruit gehaald voor paar seconde alleen de bios is niet gereset.

ik weet het niet meer wat de oorzaak is

My recommendation: do NOT try to reset the BIOS, because it won't solve your problem, 99.9% of the fine.

 

> The reason is that the computer is slow with all the windows that I have. xp, 7 and 10.

 

What are the specifications for your computer:

 

* size of RAM?

* Intel or AMD processor? single-core? dual-core? quad-core? speed of each CPU?

* 32-bit or 64-bit version of Windows 7/8/8.1/10 ?

* size of disk-drive?

* age of the disk-drive? [old disk-drives may have problems reading from some sectors,

and "retrying" to read those "failing" sectors can literally add *SECONDS* of "delay"]

Use the model-number and serial-number labelled on the disk-drive to access the manufacturer's web-site to "check warranty status".  If the warranty has expired, compare it to driving your automobile on "bald" tires -- you may be able to drive for a while, until the tires (or the disk-drive) "blows", if you are VERY LUCKY.

 

 

> I just removed the battery for few seconds only the bios is not reset.

 

Correct.  There is a small battery on the laptop's motherboard that prevents the removal of the battery from causing the BIOS-settings to be "lost".

Quote from an HP web-site:

 

 ... after pressing the power button, repeatedly press the Esc key to enter the Start Up Menu, and follow the prompt to press F10 to enter the BIOS Setup.

 

Give it a try!

 

Or, if your current keyboard is "wireless", connect a USB keyboard, and then try ESC and/or F10 on that keyboard.
