Hold the ESC key and hold at before you turn the system on.

My keyboard doesn't have a "hold at" key. Found the ESC key just fine but still looking for the "hold at" key.

Hold down the ESC key while you power on and continue to hold it down until you see the message to press the F1 key (at which time you can let go of the ESC key).
