im not sure if yours is controlled by multi media keyboard sortware and Im not sure what BIOS you have but this should work.

Go into your CMOS setup and look for a area called integrated periphials.
There should be a setting for Keyboard power on function.
Turn that off.
Dont forget to save and exit and you should be all set.
