How would I go about enabling USB keyboard support in the BIOS for a old motherboard with no PS/2 keyboard?

The motherboard deffinatly supports it, but the default is set to disabled. I need it enabled so the OS can be installed.

if you've got a usb to ps/2 adapter, use it ;) otherwise cry :p, or XP setup might support usb keyboards, aslong as you're installing xp.
 
Bah dont have one hence my request in the wanted section :o

EDIT

Thats one of the problems, I cant get to setup... CD whirls up, says press any key to boot from CD...!

Generally USB keyboard support is in the bios under the onboard device settings if my memory serves me correctly.

Alternatively, just grab a cheapo keyboard in your local pound shop, i think they are normally PS2, and its only gonna be used for 5 minutes... :D

Or find someone who has a USB mouse that doesnt use the convertor that usually comes with most USB mice, its the same as any you'd get with a keyboard i think.
