OMEN 30L Desktop PC GT13-1000i (1S3R9AV)
FreeDOS

I purchased an OMEN 30L GT13 -1000i (1S3R9AV) Desktop PC system unit , which is running FREE DOS. To install Windows, you must replace the boot device. According to the information provided by HP, it is necessary to press the ESC key during boot. In my case, pressing ESC does not boot DOS, but the necessary menu for changing the boot device does not appear on the display screen. The display just shows a blank screen. I connected the display via both VGA and HDMI - the result is the same. Please advise what should be done in this case.

@Boris1953 -- with the computer powered-OFF, start tapping the "ESC" key.

While continue to doing that, press the on/off button.

Does this sequence work?
