Question Having trouble entering BIOS with my MSI motherboard.

[Brian2000]

Hi I'm trying to enter BIOS on my MSI H61M-P31 motherboard.

I am able to press the delete key and see in the bottom left that it says "Entering Setup..." but after that it shows a blue screen for a split second then it just restarts my computer normally.

I have tried to clear CMOS but no luck.

Hello, can you list your entire system specs, and may I ask: Will your system still boot into your OS?

Hi I just managed to get it to boot into BIOS a few minutes ago by removing my HDD (os is stored on SSD).

I don't know if I'm consistently able to enter BIOS yet but here's my specs (Windows 10):

Motherboard: MSI H61M-P31
CPU: i7 3770k
GPU: GTX 1070
RAM: 16GB DDR3
STORAGE: 1TB HDD / 128GB SSD

EDIT: Yes, my computer boots just fine after failing to get into BIOS.

You could try using partition manager to reformat your HDD after backing up important files.
