    Lenovo Laptop Owners: How do you get into BIOS with Fn key?


    I was working on a Lenovo laptop this weekend. Could not get into the UEFI Bios using a function key.
    I could get to the Boot Menu using the Fn + F12 keys however.
    I had a lot to do, so I had no time to spend screwing with it. I just used the Windows 10 Recovery method to get in (what a long, circular process).

    I tried the function keys most common for Lenovo: F1 & F2. With and without the Fn key. I also tried turning off Fast Boot. The system just ignored all.

    So if you own a newer Lenovo laptop, how do you get in?

    :)

    Unmountable Boot Volume Error

    My Lenovo laptop will not boot. Every time I turn it on, it shows the Lenovo logo with the spinning circle of dots underneath it, but after about thirty seconds, it takes me to a BDOS screen with the error Unmountable Boot Volume. Every solution I've seen
    for this says to reinstall Windows 10 using a flash drive or dvd. I have a bootable flash drive with Windows 10 on it, however I cannot access the BIOS to tell my laptop to boot from USB instead. No matter what I do, I can't get to the BIOS screen. I've tried
    pushing every function key (with and without shift and/or the fn key). I don't have a novo button.

    Any help on how to access BIOS? Or should I just buy a new laptop?

    Edit: it is a Lenovo Flex 2 (15 inch)

    Cursor has disappeared with Windows 10 update

    on my Lenovo, the Fn-F6 (or F6 depending on how the bios is setup) turns the mouse ON/OFF. After returning from Sleep mode, my cursor does not appear until I hit that Fn key 2X

    If I had had more time I would just be getting to the > and ? keys now!

    My favorite diagnostic tool was not working either: yelling un-publishable words at it!
