LiLmEgZ Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Try using ESC key at boot... that can also bring up the Boot Menu you seekIf not, you can choose Advanced Startup thingy under Windows 8 Environment somewhere (I forget where this is located, sorry) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
