Normally f2 or del but poss f8 at the first screen will get you into the BIOS or CMOS settings. Normally there will a series of menus and normally in the exit menu you will see something like "get default settings" or "Load Optimal Settings".

You might want to try to clear the CMOS. If you have the manual for the motherboard it should show you where the jumper is and how to do it. This is a long shot.

Hmm normally machine off. move the jumper to 2-3 for about 15sec then back to 1-2 and thats it.
