Inspiron 15 5547- How to enter bios?
Hi guys,
I recently got an Inspiron 5547 with Windows 8.1 and the touchscreen. What I can't
seem to figure out is how to get into my BIOS settings. The standard "press at the Dell logo" thing isn't working, nor or any of the other Fn keys.
Any help would be appreciated. I need to change my boot order.
Thanks!

Today's fast booting computers require a slightly diff way of accessing the bios F2 or the Boot Menu F12--
Reboot and immediately start tapping F2 without waiting for any screen. Keep tapping F2 to get into the bios.
However--today's Secure Boot computers bios should not be changed unless you have a valid reason. Access the boot menu instead of making changes in the bios to boot to cd-dvd, run diagnostics and do other tasks. Tap F12 to access it.
