If PC is stored somewhere out of the way like in a desk, it can be suitable to have an alternating means of turning it on. Many PCs have a choice to power on by using keyboard. This is somewhat that is possibly disabled by default and should be allowed in system BIOS.

Instructions

1. Step 1

Access the BIOS settings interface. When you initially turn on PC, the system BIOS can be accessed by pressing a special key. This will change based on company, but it is frequently "DEL" or "F2" key. You must view a message on screen as PC is booting that shows which key to use. If not, ask owner's manual. Some companies also refer to this as "System Setup."

2. Step 2

Find proper setting. The setting will possibly be placed below "Power Management" sector. Look for a setting known as "Power on by Keyboard" or something like that. Your PC might have some options for this setting. You will possibly be capable to select between either any key on keyboard or any particular key. Do the modifications and follow the instructions to save and exit.

3. Step 3

Check the settings. After you have found and modified settings remaining is to check and ensure that it works. Shut down PC and press proper key. It must power on and start to boot as if you had pressed power button.
