I have no way to make changes.
Mouse pointer is blinking but doesnt work.
I use keyboard to select and make changes , but when trying to save and exit by pressing F10 then enter, nothing happens when I press enter.


Does anyone has any ideas?
 
Solution
Try a native PS/2 keyboard if your motherboard supports it. That's what I use (I even use it full-time in Windows so I don't have to switch when I want to check or change any BIOS settings).

Mouse not essential to navigate around BIOS configuration screens & make changes, all can be done with keyboard (with a functioning keyboard of course).

You can get a native PS/2 keyboard from Amazon, all those on the high street are USB nowadays.

Don't forget, PS/2 ports are not hot-pluggable like USB ports, so shut down PC before plugging PS/2 keyboard in.
