It shouldn't matter whether the ultimate cd is in or not. The opportunity to get to the bios screen happens only
before anything else kicks in. If you get to something windowsish, you waited too long or it's the wrong key.
Try this. Shut the computer all the way down. Generally by holding the power key down for 5 or 10 seconds. Wait for a couple of seconds then press the power key again. Right after that start pressing the f2 (or whatever) key once a second. Also keep an eye on the screen because you might get the screen that says what key is the right one to press.
It would also help to know the model number. It's normally on the bottom of a laptop.
