Windows 7 preinstalled. All functions worked normally when running Win7. Ubuntu 12.10 installed using whole disk. Installation successful Ubuntu boots and runs normally, however all access to the bios has now been lost. Pressing the default key (f2) during boot up is acknowledged by bios beep, but ignored and Ubuntu continues booting. In addition the 'boot choices' menu (f12) contains nothing but Ubuntu making it impossible to boot from USB or CD/DVD. The latter (f12) problem was overcome by opening up the machine, removing the ram and shorting the cl1/cl2 posts with a screwdriver. This restores the ability to boot from USB/CD by pressing f12 but does not restore bios access. The following recovery actions have been tried. 1) Install Boot-Repair, run repair, no change occurred. Boot repair report here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1375041/ 2) Restore Windows from Clonezilla disk image (factory settings) - result - bios access is no longer possible from windows either, f2 now launches the Windows boot menu. 3) Update all drivers using Fujitsu driver update tool from within windows (which included a bios update). Result - no change, no bios. 4) Restored Ubuntu from Clonezilla disk image - no change. 5) Added second distro to disk. Installed successfully (uefi mode as that is all I have) no change to bios access. So overall result I have lost all bios access even from a reinstalled Windows. I repeat that bios access was perfectly normal before installing Ubuntu.
