New Asrock H81 Pro BTC board. Core I5 - 4460 CPU, 16 GB RAM.

This is a new build, I had the board laying on the shelf for quite some time and now I bought a new CPU and RAM to build the computer.

When I start it , it boots fast into the first screen and waits for an input to setup the UEFI Bios.

Now the problem is it will not recognize the keyboard. I tried a USB keyboard in all 4 USB ports, I tried a PS/2 keyboard. Nothing.
The keyboard's num lock light is on but it won't switch off when pressing the button. Pressing any other button does nothing as well.

I tried clearing the CMOS with the jumper, took out the battery and left it out for 5 minutes. Nothing helps.

Any suggestions please? I would like to start using this machine.

Thanks!

Well, I'll be d......!

After writing this post I turned around to the other table where the machine with Asrock board is sitting and the BIOS screen was there and the keyboard works!!?!

I just left it, nobody touched it.

Oh well, problem solved I guess. :D
