Entering the bios - I'm frustrated

Dear all.

I've tried many many time to enter in my virtual machine's bios. But it's almost impossible. Too fast boot, I can't get to the boot menu or bios settings.

I have to restart the VM a dozen time. It's me or it's really difficult?

Regards.

Hey,

edit the VMs settings, go to VM-Options -> Boot Options.

You can click the checkbox "enter BIOS-setup on next start"

Then after the next start of the VM, you will get into BIOS without hitting F2 or CTRL like a maniac Smiley Wink

You're welcome.

Well, getting into BIOS is indeed hard the first time on a VM, so there's a whole KB Article dealing with the procedure on different VMware products Smiley Wink
