So I've been trying to enter my bios to increase the speed of my ram from the 660MHz it's running at now to 1600MHz, but when I startup my computer and try to enter the bios by pressing the delete key when prompted, nothing happens. This is particularly strange because this used to work and I've entered the BIOS before using this keyboard but I can't now.

The backlight on the keyboard lights up, and the keyboard works fine when the computer has finished booting up but I can't enter the BIOS, I do't have any PS/2 keyboards on hand, if it's really necessary I could go get one but I'd rather not.

Thanks in advance :)

I've tried one on the front and the one on the top left of the motherboard IO on the back of the computer with no change, restarting instead of shutting down has no effects, I've also tried uninstalling and re-installing the keyboard drivers.
