Hello everybody!
Recently I had some propblems with my laptop, everytime it started a screen from American Megatrends appeared. After doing some research, I just pressed f2 and the laptop started. However, yesterday pressing f2 didn't work anymore, the computer seems to not react to the keyboard anymore. The only thing that causes some reacton is pressing ctrl alt del, which causes the computer to start from new, the asus screen appears followed by the american megatrends screen. I have no usb drives or anything else attached to the laptop. I have no idea how to solve this problem, and would appreciate your guys' help ALOT.
I own a ASUS pr055.
Here's what appears on the American Megatrends screen:
