I am helping a friend troubleshoot a Toshiba DC19V 237.A
This laptop has no function keys so there is no way push F12 to get to the boot menu.
I don't find a manual on line.
Do any of you folks have any idea ho to get to the boot menu on this machine?

| If F12 isn't working use F2 to get into the BIOS and change the boot device. |

If there are no function keys how do you use F2 instead of F12?

| Maybe try the DEL key, or ESC key? |

Someone posted the same thing about a Toshiba Laptop in another forum. After closer examination there are F keys, just in very small letters.
Another option is to use a USB connected keyboard that does have F keys.

I may get a magnifying glass and see if there is anything too small to see. My eyes aren't that great.
The reason I need the boot menu is that Windows 10 doesn't load.

Jack, thanks. There really are numbers there. It did take a magnifying glass but I am not sure I could have seen those when I was 25.
