How do you get into bios for a Area-51® X58

[bcooper56]

How do you get into bios to do overclocking i want to get to 3.6 ghz on intel i7 940.

err try f2 on boot, or is it f12 or maybe f8 eh, cant remember

One of those should get you to boot order while the other will get you into the BIOS when you start up your computer, just smash one of those buttons. I dont know if alienware locks down the BIOS to prevent consumer overclocks though.

Most channel motherboards, which is what AW uses require the DEL key to get into the BIOS.

Hi bcooper56, if your system is turned off, power it on and press the delete key to go directly to the BIOS.

The guides from our Knowledge Base via AW Support will assist you with your X58s BIOs, they are available at- http://4help.alienware.com/cgi-bin/a...wers.search_nl, you may also log into our AW My Hive section for additional assistance with the BIOS from the AW Main Support page online.

Please feel free to PM me your AW Account and system information for additional information about overclocking your system.

Have a nice day!
