It depends on your BIOS as to how you get into it. The most common ways are
DEL, F1, F2, F10, ESC. Some manufacturers use real funky combos like
CRTL-ESC, F10, etc. Also most of the time the ones that have the combo
keystrokes don't usually show how to get into it.
As far as disabling your PnP in the BIOS. The only thing that I have found
that helpful for is in modem setup. I could not get my modem to work. I then
disabled PnP in BIOS & voila it worked. No problems with any other devices.
