Basically around the 2000s we had a WinXP computer and each time I wanted to use it, either my mom or my dad had to turn it on. However they had to strike the key to enter the BIOS. Everytime when booting the PC. Then they would exit the BIOS and so Windows XP would boot normally.

Do you guys know if your parents also did that and why?

    Really? Their laptops (Latitude, at least) are some of the most serviceable ones I’ve ever seen, only second to Thinkpads.

      Perhaps their laptops are ok but their prebuilt PCs (they type you parents buy without research) are awful cost cutting junk.
