Hi,

What happens after you press f2 or f12? Usually if it gets stuck on lenovo logo it means that there is something wrong with BIOS so you need to reset it. But if happens that it gives you error message after that window it could be a OS error or it could be the HDD is bad.

Mine just come out LENOVO then stop there. i press F2 @ F12 but not working. Plz help me

This sounds like a hard drive issue, if you have a windows backup disc try a fresh install, no luck! remove hardware and reseat back in place, this will sometimes solve the problem, no change! have the hard drive tested.

My lenovo destop i cant format f2 f12 not acsept

Format? Are you talking about doing a System Recovery where is sets your system back to the time you first purchased it? If so you'll lose all your data, documents, music, pictures, videos and any programs you've installed since the purchase.

Why do a System Recovery when maybe a System Restore will help you? System Restore keeps all your data, documents, music, pictures, videos and programs. Click Start/Program/Accessories/System Tools/System Restore. Select a restore point (date and time) that is before you started having problems.

Hai my name is laman my lenovo laptop just haveasmall problem it's displays only press {f2} for set up press f12 for boot device selection & can not execute so any one please solve this problem

Pressing F2 is the shortcut key to enter in cmos setup or bios settings where you can setup interrupt request and the direct memory access and also changing system date and time. While the F12 key is a shortcut key where you can select a boot device which are the hard disk drive if it's loaded with the operating system like windows xp or windows 7 etc., and if you are going to install or reformat your computer select the cd/dvd room drive to be the boot device. Supposedly the computer will load after the F2 or F12 appears on your screen if you have the functional operating system. But if your computer still restarting and always appearing on your screen the said F2 and F12 keys that means it is required to be reformat your computer. But before that you try to tapping F8 key while turning on your computer and select safe mode and press enter, after loading and still restarting that is the time to format your computer but you must back up your data or files that you saved on your computer. Call a computer technician or IT that know how to back up and can format your computer. Have a nice day.
