USB Issues

Ok, I just built my first PC and had no issues. It started up like a charm.

However, the USB ports may not be working. I have no keyboard activity so I can't run the BIOS setup. I am using a keyboard and mouse from an iMac, but should this be a problem? I have used it on PC laptops before.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

you could try to borrow one from a friend. if not, then a ps/2 keyboard should be cheap.
