I know this isn't super related to OS, but I didn't know where to post this.

the title says the question, went into BIOS and corrected my ram speed. My keyboard  dosent have a F1 key so I can't continue after being in my AMIBIOS screen, and am wondering if pressing the power button will hurt anything.


the photo of what I'm talking about is below.

 

thank you!

It will not hurt anything. But what kind of keyboard doesn't have function keys??

Your keyboard doesn't have an F1 key?
 

You most likely won't be able to do anything until you push F1 and then exit your BIOS.

 

It shouldn't hurt anything, it will most likely just put you back to this screen.

 

But seriously, what keyboard doesn't have an F1 key?

Weird.

 

I have way too many keyboards (seriously, I have 4 that I'm not using).

 

You can have one if you like.

 

Course, you'll need a PS/2 to USB adapter, as they're all Dell QuietKey keyboards.

 

Attics are fun.

On 60% keyboards, I've heard there's often some sort of workaround where pressing the function key + a number makes it do the F key for that number. So holding down fn and pressing 1 would send the F1 keystroke. Maybe try doing that?

 

fn + alt + 1 is another possibility if fn + 1 doesn't work

I mostly speak from my own past experience from similar problems. My solution may not work for you, but I'll always try my best to help as much as I can. If you want me to see your reply, make sure to quote my comment or mention me @WaggishOhio383, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

-> Moved to CPUs, Motherboards and Memory

What you are looking at is POST screen. Nothing will happen if you restart, it will just come back to same screen. And do that until you either reset BIOS (with button or by removing CMOS battery) or run setup.
