Can't access the Bios

[agemini68]

I got a reconditioned Dell Dimension 4500, I installed LTS 12.04 as the only OS. After the install, if I try to access the BIOS, I get a message that the Utility Partition is not found. I downloaded the partition manager and checked, the utility partition is there, so how do I get it recognized?

Never mind, reconditioned pc doesn't come with instructions. I was using the F10 key which was how I got there with my old computer. This one is F2. Now I feel like an idiot, lol
