Compaq Presario 1200 Bios HELP!

[onemeanmarine]

I just bought a used Compaq Presario 1200 laptop without any paperwork or manuals. I need to know how to get into bios from the boot screen. I have tried the usual keys (Del, F1, F2) but no luck. Can anyone give me some info on how to get into bios on this laptop? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I own a Presario, 1200 series for over 2 yrs. and I still don't know how to get into BIOS. How much you paid for it, because I am interested to sell mine too.
I updated to WIN XP and I cannot get the battery to charge. I had ME previously and it workedjust fine.
