Sorry about the Dell confusion. No big deal haha... If you can't get into BIOS though, I'd try what others suggested, use a PS/2 keyboard. I think I remember an older VIA nano board that wouldn't hit BIOS from USB keyboard. I assumed your newer board would. Maybe not though.

Anyhow... the way I fixed my issue is outlined in the manual. If you can get into BIOS, look at page 66. It talks about setting ESCD which clears extended BIOS info. That is what I did to clear the SATA boot problem that you are having. Just set Reset Configuration Data to ENABLED, save settings and reboot. Then make sure that it boots into Windows and go back to BIOS and make sure that setting disabled itself again.
