New Build Startup Question

[sparkski]

I just booted up my new PC, and was trying to get into my BIOS (pressing Delete key) but I was instead taken to the Windows Setup menu. How would I exit out of the Setup to get back to the BIOS? Can I just turn the computer off and on again or will that hurt something? 

 

Also is the correct delete key the one on the numpad?

You can just hold power button until PC shuts down and power it on again, it won't damage it. I think DEL keep is default bios key for any PC nowadays, I could be wrong though.

 

EDIT: Delete key is normally located above arrow keys.

Thanks, I'll give it a try!

EDIT: My keyboard has 3 delete keys, but I pressed the right one this time lol

Read the motherboards manual, the key might be different.

Del is the most common but even some modern boards use F1/F2 or F11/F12

Figured it out, it was the delete key, must not have pressed it on time. Thanks for your help!
