My keyboard female (motherboard side) connector has gone
dud so I bought a USB keyboard which works fine....except that
it does not allow me access to Bios. I have since been told that
I must make changes in Bios (Legacy) to have the USB keyboard accepted
by my motherboard. I'm in a "Catch 22" position here. Has anyone any
ideas of how I can get into BIOS...apart from buying a new m'board?
This keyboard is a Kensington HID (whatever HID means) & having
looked at the Kensington site (unimpressive) there is no help there at
all.
All help gratefully received. TIA

It seems like an obvious question, but you haven't explicitly answered
it: Does your motherboard have any PS/2 ports?
