Since yesterday, i can not find how to go to bios setting or how to go to booting option.
I have read all articles on this forum about pressing esc, f9, or f10 when notebook begin starting.
But never work. All of this button never work.
....
Somebody tell me combination with fn button, but it also didn't work. Everytime i press fn+f9 or fn+f10 when notebook begin start doesn show bios or booting menu.
....
Does it becouse i use windows 8?
My notebook is HP Mini 110-3500 with Windows 8 in it.
....
Then i try to search 'how to go to bios setting in windows 8', i found many articles, most of them using UEFI bios setting. But on my HP Mini there is no UEFI setting?
....
Can somebody tell me how to go to bios setting or how to go to booting options?
i want to reinstall this HP Mini using my usb flash drive.
thanks,

SOLVED,
To go to bios setting, press esc and hold on notebook restart, not on turning on 😛

The best way to access BIOS setting on your HP Mini 110-3500 is by tapping F10 Key during the startup
