Hello @Artyom2 

 

Opening the BIOS Setup Utility
Access the BIOS Setup Utility using a series of key presses during the boot process.

  1. Turn off the computer and wait five seconds.
  2. Turn on the computer, and then immediately press the esc key repeatedly until the Startup Menu opens.
  3. Press f10 to open the BIOS Setup Utility.

i turned off computer, waited 5 seconds, but after starting computer and continuously pressing ECS, BIOS Setup Utility was not open. I pressed to ESC until the Windows opened, maybe BIOS Setup Utility was skipped because any error

To help you I need to know the product number (p/n) of your notebook !

 

You will find this information on the back of your notebook printed in small alphanumeric letters.

The product number (p/n) is legally allowed information, just about the computer, no sensitive data.

It is allowed to post in public, no problem.
