Cannot boot from Win 7 DVD or enter the BIOS

[Dark Mantis]

You can not enter the bios settings without actually going into bios!!!!!!!!!! You hit the delete key while the machince is posting and then enter your bios and look to enable usb keyboard..Look in the intergrated peripherals and it will be there.

But the thing is, I cannot enter  BIOS because neither my "Delete" key or for that matter any other key on my keyboard works when the machine is posting.

It is just an easy mistake to make and you wonder why someone is being so stupid when in fact a little more careful reading would show that as not the case.
