    New to me PC is stuck in BIOS


    I got a new PC from a friend first time owning one, I was told it needed a windows key, so I got one, but the PC only shows the BIOS screen, so I do not know how to exit this screen or how to install windows/input the key. I’ve tried searching for the answers via google, but I have not found anything useful or similar.

    :)

    Stuck on Bios- custom PC - quick re-build ques

    There is an updated UEFI Bios for this motherboard... but it's still listed as Beta and requires a complete clearout of the the previous Bios. As the OP is still on "Small Steps" I think it would be prudent to let this pass... *Wink - - - Updated - - - Use USB 1.1/2.0 port
