My old Gateway 486SX/33 w/win 3.11 gets into bios with F1 -
try hitting it repeatedly as soon as you power on.  Just
tried mine, went right in.

I cannot get into the BIOS using the usual suspects like "delete", F1, etc.  A call to Gateway's techies turned up nothing. Most of them are too young to remember this machine, which was top of the line in 1993.  Does anyone actually know how to get into the BIOS on this puppy?
