Have you tried to do a system restore? Maybe a "Cold Start", remove the AC plug, remove the AC plug, hold doen the on/off button for 10 seconds, replace battery, plug into AC outlet, re-boot. If that fails try again this time repeatedly tapping the F-8 key so you have options to restore/recovery etc.

I can't get into BIOS the laptop will only boot to the ASUS screen. No opportunity to press f8 as the machine does not boot that far. I believe that removing the cmos battery will reset the BIOS to factory, but no one seems to know where the CMOS battery or the clear/reset jumper is either??? I know I could find it if I opened the case, but I heard that some of them (battery) are behind the screen??? I just wanted to get an idea of where they were before I dive in !
The CMOS battery is on the Motherboard:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0gpFMF5R... If you remove the AC plug, remove the battery, leave the battery out for now, plug in AC, reboot, when you push the on/off button IMMEDIATELY start tapping the "esc", F-1 .........F-12 one after another, in quick sequence. It has to be done immediately after the on/off button is pressed. If you can get to the SetUp page look for the boot sequence/ order.
Here is another procedure for location of CMOS:http://www.insidemylaptop.com/how-to-dis...
Try the "esc" key at boot. IMMEDIATLY start tapping the "esc" key, push the on/off button with one finger while tapping the "esc" key with the other finger, REPEATEDLY.
Max, Thanks for the advice. Tapping the esc. ked did not work, but I see the cmos battery in pic 13! Thank you!

It's difficult to say but you will need to remove the underside screws and also maybe even the keyboard as it's often attached to the base. The cmos battery could also be behind the screen. Comment by sandrew, posted on Nov 12, 2006 I'm sorry but I dont have any personal experiences with your particular laptop, but the lcd's are generally held in with 1 screw in each corner normally covered by a rubber bung hiding the screws, I would be very carefull not to disconnect any wires behind the screen, if yor not sure take it to a qualified repairer. You will probably have to remove the top panel just below the hinges as they may be held in underneath

If you are able to locate either the jumper (JBAT1) terminal from pins 1-2 to pins 2-3 for a few seconds and then back to pins 1-2; or the cmos battery(remove for about 10 minutes) which will be on the motherboard although where is anyones guess, unless somebody does know, but i'm sorry i don't. Athough this may not open up the hardrive as sometimes there is a hidden file on some manufacturers hardrives that sometimes prevent formating.

Thanks Steel Breeze!! I did exact as you suggested and it was easy. I used a Dremmal tool to cut a squre holes. You can actaully see part of the battery (CR2032) through one of the existing holes.
SOURCE: does the Asus U50F have a keyboard backlight? & how to turn on?
Hi,
No i'm sorry but that model has no keyboard backlight. If you wanted one which did have a backlight you would have to purchase a customised one.
Regards.
