Welcome gohruiren,

It will depend on the brand of your computer and what BIOS chip is installed. The necessary key or key combination to press is often shown on screen during POST. F1 is quite common and so is Delete.

That failing, here is a list of common ones that may serve you:

bios setup access

del during boot AMI, Award
Esc during boot Toshiba
F1 during boot Toshiba; Phoenix; Late model PS/1 Value Point and 330s
F2 during boot NEC
F10 when square in top RH corner of screen Compaq
Ins during boot IBM PS/2s w/ Reference Partition
Reset twice Some Dells
Alt Enter Dell
Alt ? some PS/2s
Ctrl-Esc General
Ctrl Ins some PS/2s when pointer at top right of screen
Ctrl Alt Esc AST Advantage, Award, Tandon
Ctrl Alt + General
Ctrl Alt S Phoenix
Ctrl Alt Ins Zenith, Phoenix

Do you have a USB or PS2 keyboard connected?
I am just wondering if you are using a USB keyboard and somehow USB has been disabled in the bios.
Can this happen? If so what then should gohruiren do?
