MSN10020616, PC Akoya P5372/H, HOW DO I GET ACCESS TO THE BIOS ??

[atttim]

How do I get access to my BIOS to check if its updated or not, and see any other useful info at start up should I need to update it.

Anyone know why this information is not found in the applicable User Handbook !!??

Hi @atttim 

see page 34:

16.2.1. Executing the UEFI firmware setting
You can only run the configuration program upon system start-up. If you have al-
ready started up your PC, exit Windows® and restart your PC.
` Before restarting your PC, press the button Entf and hold it down until the mes-
sage Entering Setup appears.

Thanks for that info.

Afraid I have that Publication to which your link refers, and it does not mention anything about my question about the BIOS anywhere.

Perhaps you have an updated version, my version is dated 07/17 ??

Hi, I stand corrected as what you said IS on page 36 para 16.3.1 and apologise

My problem is I do not understand what is meant by a UEFI setting, but will give it a go as you suggested , restarting PC and Pressing Entf

Thanks once again

Hello @atttim , which bios version do you have installed?

Perhaps you could guide me where I can find which Bios Version I have ??

I looked in Device Manager but didn't see it there

@atttim 

You can execute msinfo32 (Windows Tab plus R) . There you will find the Bios Version on Page one.

Or check the first page in Bios. To get into Bios leave Windows with the shift tab pressed --> choose Run down. 

At restart keep the tab --> Del pressed. This will bring you into Bios as well.

Cheers, daddle
