Try a different keyboard.

 

Or:

  • power-off your computer,
  • power-on your computer, and immediately and repeatedly tap the F2 key.

If it still does not enter BIOS SETUP, then you probably have a failing motherboard -- expensive to replace.

 

What is the model-number?

How old is the computer?
