Yes i am using a wirless keyboard but i will trying a PS2 one and see what happens from there. just seems strange that it works fine for everything else except when i try to do that.
Yeah, pretty obvious, try another keyboard as suggested and if in future you use USB you can set it to be controlled from the OS or the BIOS i always have it set to BIOS otherwise you run into similar issues that you're describing, if as you've suggested you will you use a PS2 keyboard then that's guarenteed really, the proven choice
