The answer largely depends on what make of computer you have, as different manufacturers use different options.

That said try pressing the F2, F10, F12, or the delete key continuously as soon as you power up you PC until you see a message indicating that the bios is starting or the bios screen appears.

WARNING: be careful when changing settings. Always make a note of what changes were made in case you need to undo anything.
