Hello,
So here's my problem: I'm using a USB keyboard and I want to enter the BIOS menu, but this keyboard is only recognized after the operating system starts.
What should I do?
How should I proceed?
I would be very grateful and thank you very much.
Configuration: Windows XP

    Remove the battery from the motherboard (after unplugging the PC and opening the case), wait a few minutes and put it back in place. It's a round, flat battery about 1.5 cm wide.

    This allows the BIOS to reset to default and specifically re-enable USB, if that's where the problem lies.

      But does the BIOS open by itself then?
