new build question.

Hi tomorrow is B day and Ive just been chatting to someone about my build and what parts Ive got.
A question came to light that I may have a problem when first booting up and accessing BIOS because my keyboard and mouse are both USB.
Will this cause a problem and do I need a ps2 connection keyboard??
This is my first build so I'm sorry if its a stupid question.

I think it will be fine, I did a build in january for some one using a logitech wireless keyboard that uses a usb wireless receiver, and it worked out of the box.

I regularly go into the bios for tweaking, and yes my keyboard and mouse are wireless USB. Once you get the timing right on pressing the key (too early can force a keyboard error) you'll be fine

I do have an old Microsoft wireless keyboard and mouse but I'm sure that doesn't work until I install drivers and set the bluetooth devices?
Remember this will be a new build so now drivers are installed yet.
I really want tomorrow to go without a hitch LoL
