Keyboard not working during boot

[yandaman]

Hi guys

 

I'm trying to get into my bios to sort out my boot order to fix another problem (at the same time I've been hit with a 0xc000000e error message: The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible.) but I can't get into the bios due to the keyboard not working. The keyboard itself is a standard USB keyboard (Logitech K200). Was working perfectly fine before this but now nothing when I try to boot up, not even seeing any lights when I press num lock or caps lock. I have tested it on my laptop and they keyboard still works perfectly fine on that.

 

Any ideas?

 

System specs:

Intel 4670k, MSI G45 mobo, 8 gigs corsair dominator ram, GTX 770, Vertex 4 SSD as OS drive and a 1tb storage drive.

alot of old motherboards didnt support usb keyboards in the bios, ive always kept a ps/2 kb handy for those situations.

 

But i find it strange that a newish Motherboard doesnt work straight off the bat, also theres usually a setting inside the bios/uefi called something like "Enable USB Support" .. im not sure if the MSI UEFI has mouse support.. but perhaps u can enable that option with your mouse.

 

edit. but if your mouse works and its USB too then >_<

Alright guys managed to fix it, had to remove both SSD and HDD which somehow reset the keyboard into working. Managed to get into the bios and boot off a USB and repair windows.
