I am running wheezy, and would like to upgrade to jessie. To that end I've bought a CD and a USB stick from LinuxCollections. My problem: when booting I can't get into my bios to change the boot order. No matter what key I press, the system continues on with a re-boot of my old wheezy.
Details: my motherboard is a "Military Class Motherboard", which I believe is also called MSI....
MSI is a motherboard brand. Military Class is a feature class MSI marketing uses. I have one such:

[ Yes, I should have saved the material that came with my machine. But I have recently moved, quite hurriedly, and I fear that the paper manuals were lost. ]
If indeed yours is a MSI motherboard, which is probably fairly obvious early in POST, then pop the cover, find the model number stenciled largely on it, and find a PDF manual on MSI's web site.
