reinstalling BIOS in a new notebook that came without an OS

System: stuck between win7 and Linux Mint 19.3
Battery or AC:
Model: Asus VivoBook X512F
Frequency of occurrence:
Reset OS:

========================
Detailed description: Tried installing 2 different operating systems. Now I wanted to reset the BIOS and reload a different OS, but I could not reset the system. I could not find even an update BIOS for the model using option F9 etc. Maybe I have to communicate with American Megatrends Inc. about the settings in Aptio Setup Utility (the particular bios supplied by Asus). Could anybody help me?

Hi @Morley , to have a better and more stable performance, we would suggest you to upgrade to Windows 10 and perform BIOS update by following this link: https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1008859/ . Thanks!
