Hi everybody, I want to change the boot order on my Sony Vaio, but I don't know how. I haven't figured how to change my boot order or enter the BIOS. Does anyone know how to do either? Please tell me, as I would like to downgrade from Windows 8 to Windows 7.

should be just hold f2 look in your manual and it will tell you.

If it has one Press the ASSIST button while your VAIO computer is off.
The VAIO Care Rescue Mode screen appears. Select Start BIOS setup.

.

Turn on computer hit F2 and see if "F12 network boot" is disabled
IF it is arrow down (so it is white)
hit enter changed to enable hit enter
will ask if you want to save and exit choose YES
when system restarts hit F12 and you should go boot order

Te100 has the right solution for your problem, I think. I have the same issue and it works for me. Just press the ASSIST button when your computer is off and it will turn the computer on and direct you to the wizard page which will guide you through the process. Just follow the wizard as what you want to do.

Nothing from above helped me.
But what that worked:
1. Turn off laptop. Not a regular way but
Open Charms bar,
Settings,
PC Settings,
Recovery and Update,
Recovery,
Advanced Startup,
Turn off,
2. Press Power key.
3. Press F2 key.

Switch off the laptop. Now press the ASSIST key to turn ON the laptop. DO NOT press any other key, not even the POWER BUTTON. The laptop will turn on to the Recovery screen and from there you can select what you want to do. IT DOES WORK.
