Can't Enter BIOS On Gigabyte Motherboard

[klct555]

Ok, I understand that this is a problem that occurs and is seen probably daily on this website. But I think my situation is a little bit different. Previously went I went into the BIOS, I turned on Fast Boot (self-explanatory) and I changed it so my system boots off of my SSD. And thanks to both, my system boots in 3-5 seconds. Here's the thing: Not only is this boot up to fast to enter the BIOS, but I believe the fast boot up overall skips the "This is the part where is shows your MB manufacturer and you can enter the BIOS on this screen" part, and also Fast Boot doesn't let DEL be a button used to enter the BIOS. And since this mobo is a little bit older, I can't change the UEFI settings via restart on Windows 10. Please help. Thanks.

With fast boot enabled, it will prevent you from entering the bios. You need to clear the cmos by jumper.

Don't I have to manually go into my PC to do that? I'm fine with it, I'm just asking.

You do. Can you get your hands on the manual? There will be a jumper or a button depending on the MB. Or pull the battery out for a few minutes. You will have to reset the clock as well if you go that route. Good luck!

Alright, I'm back from the treacherous journey. It took so long b/c there was no jumper so I had to remove the battery for 10 minutes. But now I can enter the BIOS and I now learned to never turn on Fast Boot. Thanks a lot for the help!

I use fast boot, but I rarely have to go into my bios. f11 brings me to boot options which is all I ever need anyway. glad i could help.
