So I've decided to do the switch. I've made the CD installer, but can't get my PC to load into the BIOS (like it says in the Pocket Guide).
I've tried hitting Esc / F12 / Delete, but Windows XP still boots up. Is it because my keyboard is wireless?

It could be. Do you have another keyboard you can try? You can also try F1,F2, or F10. Just go crazy hitting all of the combinations very quickly.Originally Posted by jermza

a ps2 keyboard is usualy the way to go, then just enable usb keyboard support while you're in the bios...
If that fails you can reset the cmos by removing the battery on the mobo and shorting out the + and - batery connectors(on the board not the battery).
