PC to fast, to enter into BIOS of virtual machine using F2

[Axel_W_]

Does on of you could give me a tip, to slow down boot process to be able to enter into the BIOS of the virtual machine ?

Is there any else alternative to F2 ?

Thanks for your help in advance

Add bios.bootDelay=10000 to the .vmx file of the guest. That's a pause in milliseconds.

Hi

If you are using the VMware workstation 6.5 you can boot the Virtual Machine directly into the BIOS.

Under the VM menu you just go to Power – Power On to BIOS
