What does your primary hard disk partition look like? Is there a Fat32 partition? Or just NTFS?

Also, for your knowledge - this is the difference between the CMOS and a BIOS.

While I respect your opinion, I find it highly unlikely that it went in to change the boot order AND disabled the keyboard input. In fact, dare I say it, it's impossible. Something else must have happened.

PS - check your PM.

Also, is your mobo UEFI compliant? (and you just turned on legacy BIOS) or is your board a BIOS only (for all intents and purposes) board?
