    Hi guys

    I would like to use my external USB keyboard to enter the bios.
    Per default it seems not to work. Further could also NOT find a option in the BIOS to activate.

    Does anybody know more?

    Thanks

    My keyboard works just fine, just to be sure though enable USB LEGACY SUPPORT in bios.
