PC will not go to BIOS - says no keyboard detected
Machine has been running Win 10 64 for about a month. No problems (except those relating to things Win 10 does that I don't like). Keyboard uses a USB 2 adapter since the MB no longer has a keyboard port. I use USB 2 because I don't think USB 3 is active early enough on this MB. I did try it; no joy. I have had no problem entering the BIOS until today. I have turned off secure boot and fast boot several weeks ago. Still worked fine. MB is an Asus P8Z77-V Deluxe. I checked connections and moved the mouse to another USB 2 port. No change. I have never had a problem with this keyboard, and it works fine once it gets into the OS. Previously it also worked fine with the BIOS.
When booting the BIOS says there is no keyboard detected; hence it can't see the Del key to go into the BIOS. It is a strange boot. It starts and sits for quite a long time and says no keyboard. It then appears to start the boot again, but now goes to the OS. The OS seems to start more that once briefly and then go to a normal boot.
