When trying to book the computer I get stuck at a screen that says
(HP logo center screen)
Press ESC key for Startup Menu
When I hit escape key on different keyboards, nothing happens. Sometimes when it boots, a different screen appears. This is an all black screen that says some basic hardware specs and again says press esc key for startup menu. Nothing happens here either
