Make sure your device is plugged in. Enter normal BIOS with F2, then turn off your PC.
Press this combination while your PC is turned off from previous BIOS boot:
- FN once then press again and hold,
- While holding press:
- F4, 4, R, F, V
- F5, 5, T, G, B
- F6, 6, Y, H, N
Basically moving your index, middle and ring finger diagonally downward to the right starting from F4, F5, F6 down to V, B, N (taking it one line at a time)
Press the Power Button and hit F2. You should see Advanced Option after Main Option
🚨 BE VERY CAREFUL!
There is a reason why they made it as difficult as this. I just recovered from accidentally turning off my internal graphics without BIOS back flash activated. I couldn't see anything at Boot Time until an Operating System was loaded.
Make sure to take precautionary steps like activating BIOS Back Flash and PS2K keyboard and mouse so you can perform a BIOS reset with F2, F9, Enter and F10 or Back Flash with Windows should anything go wrong.
Else you maybe considering flashing the BIOS chip like I was 🥲

You should be able to boot your computer and press the F8, F9, F10, or DEL to get into the BIOS. Quickly after that press the A key to show advanced settings. Hope this helps

thank you for the quick response. :-). how ever that did not work. the only way I can get into the bios far as know is f2 and F12... I got into the advanced accidentally some how. I cant get back in... I have tried most of the settings including the one that you have posted, it does not work . I appreciate you though...
Here are two things to try.
-To enter BIOS mode, press Fn key, don’t let go of Fn key, then TAB once, then “ASDFGH” letter after letter, then press O ( the letter ) then press F10 to save and restart.
-When you boot up, tap F2 to enter BIOS.
* “More settings” can be found by clicking “more settings”.
* You can now slide your finger through all the alphabetical keys (Q to P, A to L, Z to M) by holding Fn.
* You can release the Fn by pressing F10 at the same time.
* Make sure you save and exit the site.
* You will be able to unlock more settings after entering BIOS again.

thank you again for the response, not sure when to try the FN key. in directions at the top? how ever I tried it, just boots into windows... I held F2, all I have at the top is information, configuration, security, boot, exit at the top. I do not see anything anywhere that has more settings...
when do I do this part?
-To enter BIOS mode, press Fn key, don’t let go of Fn key, then TAB once, then “ASDFGH” letter after letter, then press O ( the letter ) then press F10 to save and restart.
I know lenovo does not want us to know how to get into these settings,,but there has to be some one out there that knows how to do this...
I tried this on my 720-13IKB with the last bios 2.07
The far I can get with this combination (F4 ... N) is a "debug screen" where I can do almost nothing (lock the battery, i dont know what means)
