Why would my parents always enter the BIOS when booting when I was younger
Basically around the 2000s we had a WinXP computer and each time I wanted to use it, either my mom or my dad had to turn it on. However they had to strike the key to enter the BIOS. Everytime when booting the PC. Then they would exit the BIOS and so Windows XP would boot normally.
Do you guys know if your parents also did that and why?
You're viewing a single thread.
Your parents werent computer smart people.
Hey, knowing your way into the BIOS and out again is at least hacker level 7.
wait, there's a way out? I bought another pc for nothing
I’ve been sitting in the BIOS for 20 years now. Send help.
You can buy new PCs? I flashed Firefox to my BIOS the one time it let me restart
I mean the computer literally tells you how to do it when booting up
Reading the messages on the screen is already hacker level 5.
It doesn't tell you how to exit
Well not unless you're literate I suppose.
Lol yeah like it doesn’t verbally tell you, if that’s what they were expecting.
try escape then :q
