Product: HP Z440 Desktop
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
Pressing F10 does not open the BIOS manager. What happens is I get the normal "Intel Boot Agent GE 1.5.50" screen, whih then displays "PXE 2.1 Build 092 (WFM 2.0)" as it always does. But then the boot process stops and I have to press Ctrl-Alt-Delete. It does this after ESC and F9 as well. I tried F12, that gave me a message about "media test failed, check cable".
If I do nothing, everything boots as normal into Windows, but I just can't get the BIOS menu (F10) or the Boot Order (F9) to open.
