External keyboard to bios access

[Loic2810]

Hi,

I changed my HDD to SSD on my zbook 15 G1 but unfortunatly my F10 key doesn t work on my zbook keyboard.

So i tried to add an external keyboard but no success...

Is there any solution to add an external USB keyboard to have a F10 key ?

Or any other solution.

Thanks a lot.

Generally -- NO -- because the external keyboard is not recognized until the Windows drivers are loaded and that doesn't happen until Windows starts.

Oh really so if my F10 key doesn't work any chance to change my BIOS setup 😥

Thanks @wawood for your reply

You could try pressing the Esc key repeatedly and when the HP Startup Menu appears, see if you select the BIOS that way.
