i hear you, what i mean is that sometimes a BIOS has hidden and obfuscated
BIOS toggles that can affect booting that are not keyboard related...

hard drive compatibility, memory, and much more etc ad nauseum...

and that one must go in and evaluate *each* and *every* "toggle" and use the
old brain to think about what the mfg was truly trying to accomplish with
that toggle...

it isn't necessarily related to your specific situation though. just food
for thought.
