While prepping the above board to send to PenguinPal I noticed that I was not able to enter BIOS. There is no keyboard not detected message it just simply won't initiate. Can't get in pressing F2 or F11 for boot menu. I can only assume this come from a bad flash but that's just a guess only ans seeing as none of my keyboards USB or PS/2 work re-flashing is not an option.


Any ideas guys? I'd really like to get this board out to him ASAP.

Try booting, and see if you get any power to the keyboard (any keyboard).

Then once you get power, press the reset button. See if you can get in now.

Its a shot in the dark, but I've had stuff like that happen before.

USB mouse won't light up until Windows starts loading, and you only have a PS/2 keyboard? No USB to test with?
