I've installed Microsoft Keyboard with Fingerprint reader (USB socket, under
windows XP, hadrware is 2 years old Pentium 4).
Keyboard and reader work OK only after Windows is loaded (login prompt)...
... but it doesn't work before - I can neither enter BIOS setup nor choose
system in boot manager!

Can anybody help me with that? I hope it is not standard feature of USB
devices.
