A wireless keyboard is not going to work in this case (at last I don't
think). You will need to attach a wired keyboard. BIOSes are not
compatible with wireless or BlueTooth keyboards as far as I know.
 
Using a wireless keyboard I can and do enter my BIOS quite easily.
But then I have that Legacy support option enabled in my Bios

Hmm, must be just my BlueTooth Keyboard won't work with the BIOS. I
have never used a Wireless Keyboard that wasn't BlueTooth. So that
means that all the work is done from within the transciever and read as
a wired keyboard for the BIOS or is this just a really fancy computer? :)
