The best way to access bios (in my experience) is to constantly press F2 as your computer restarts. Once you get into your bios (also known as UEFI), you can select an option to make the "intro screen" (screen telling you to press F2 or delete to access bios) last longer. I believe the default value is 3 seconds.


Essentially, your best bet is to restart your computer and press F2 constantly as soon as your computer shuts down and prepares to boot again. You should make it into your bios just fine that way and be able to change that timer as well.


Hope this helps :)
