I won't say with 100% certainty, but I will say beyond reasonable doubt
this is incorrect.
Which key is the fellow pressing? Try pressing the spacebar a few times
before it counts to the fifth period. If it's ignoring keypresses, Shut
the machine off, unplug the keyboard, plug it back in. turn the
computer back on. if that fails, try another keyboard. If a known
working keyboard also fails and it's ps2; see if your box will allow a
usb keyboard and try that.

Your cdrom is booting first, so you set it correctly in the BIOS. And
there is no "security" I'm aware of aside from a PCI/ISA card
physically in the machine to cause it to ignore you and not boot from
cd, assuming it is reading a valid keypress from you.

I sure did, KM. Next time, read more of the thread; Thanks for the url,
I didn't remember what thread it was. See the last line there, " If a
known
working keyboard also fails and it's ps2; see if your box will allow a
usb keyboard and try that."

Now, fuckoff troll.
