[SOLVED] COMPAQ laptop and BIOS access

[geo909]

Hello everybody, I would like some advice here.

I was given an old Compaq CM2130 laptop.
When I boot it, it shows a splash screen with compaq's logo,
but no "Press <a key> to enter setup/bios" etc..

Although the boot order is OK (I was able to run Xubuntu live CD),
it's really annoying not to be able to enter bios..

Do you happen to know what I could do?

Thank you very much!

SOLVED: I should press F10. It just doesn't mentions it.
