Default Have you ever had a working PC that wouldn't go into the BIOSmode?

I have an old Dell that seems to have no way to enter setup other than
to physically disconnect the hard drive (so no boot devices are
available).


Dell uses f1 or f2 or something different from the standard del key.


I always try F1, F2, and ESC.
