It sounds amazing, but this type of problem is more common than it looks and the solution is so simple that it can make us feel like fools for a while, although luckily it will be something we learn. forever. And it is that the fast starts of some motherboards are too fast, to the point of not being able to enter their BIOS in the traditional way.
GIGABYTE and your cards / devices, how do you enter your BIOS when fast boot is enabled?
In most cases, fast startup of the operating system is not a problem to be able to access the BIOS of the motherboard, because as a rule, we will have Windows installed in some of its versions and this can be disabled for the operating system from the power menu in the control panel.
But although this is half the job, it does not solve the problem that the BIOS is too fast to do POST and thus invalidates the ability to configure the established parameters. If we have a laptop on top, the speed of the PUBLISH it’s usually even higher, where if needed we may not even see the GIGABYTE BIOS logo screen and the next thing is the windows logo.
How do I get into BIOS with the speed at which POST loads? First, we need to be extremely clear that the key needs to be pressed. It sounds like a no-brainer, but every manufacturer does something different when it comes to selecting keys for a laptop.
Keys to enter GIGABYTE BIOS
What is discussed in this section may vary, so we recommend that you first read your user manual for the card or equipment in question so that you don’t waste too much time searching. But if you don’t have it, the most common keys from GIGABYTE for this purpose are:
- Delete or delete.
- F2
- F12
These are the most common and available options the company has for their equipment and cards, but not the most important thing. When we try this key problem a few times, we will realize that we may be playing the right one, but not “on time”.
More is not better, nor faster is no longer secure
Even though we know the specific key, many will face another problem: They still cannot enter the BIOS of their computers or motherboards, which is even more frustrating if possible. What is wrong here? Well, very simple, both to enter the BIOS and to enter directly into the Start menu by GIGABYTE.
We got into the habit of pressing the button like there was no tomorrow, which is a mistake. The right thing to do is to press this key slowly and intermittently, where we will then have the options available. If we go into the BIOS, the ideal would be to disable fast boot so that it has more time to find the right keystroke.
You do not have to stress, just press with a determined rhythm and sign, with which we can enter and start installing Windows safely from a USB stick.
