However in most of the cases the default keys F1, F2 or F10 bring the boot menus for most of the laptop or desktops. But in case if you are facing problem getting to boot menu or bios menu you can use the following table.
Here I have tried adding most of the pc or laptop manufacturers but if I missed any, plz mention that in comments. It will help others 🙂
