Bluetooth keyboard in BIOS?

[LstBrunnenG]

I have a Logitech diNovo. The keyboard, mouse, and seprate numberpad all connect to the PC via bluetooth via the mouse's cradle. Is there a way to make this setup live from power-on? As is I can't get into the BIOS or hit F8 when XP is starting. Right now that's not so bad, but I don't look forward to building a new computer soon without BIOS access.

If you have a PS/2 Keyboard, check the BIOS and see if there is anything about USB Keyboar support. My motherboard supports it, so it wouldn't surprise me if yours does.

If your main issue is with building a new computer, then what exactly is wrong with plugging in any old keyboard for the duration of the build, then switching over when you have everything set up?

Overclocking. If a couple days in I want to change some setting that I didn't understand before, I want to be able to go in and chagne it and see if it takes my o/c any higher.

I had an IC7 in the past -- great board. It supports USB keyboards and mice via the BIOS; you just need to activate it beforehand. But I've never used the diNovo keyboard before, so I don't know if your numberpad screen will operate properly under the BIOS.
