Thinkpad 600e BIOS - how do I get to it?

[Eminoir]

I bought a 600e a few weeks ago, and it didn't come with a hard drive.

So i stuck in an 800mb hoping i could format it and install windows with little hassle.

However I have no idea how to get into the BIOS on this laptop so I can make it boot from a cd. Pressing delete like in desktops doesn't work, neither does Esc, F1 or ctrl+alt+insert.

All that happens is I keymash a bit and manage to get into a test menu to test all the components, or I leave it and it comes up with a diagram saying it can't find a boot disk (i assume).

Someone help me out

Press and hold down the F1 key during power up keep it pressed until the bios screen appears

You can clone your small hard disk to a new disk in any PC if you buy an adapter for IDE/mini-IDE.
