Nice. I don't know what f, g or j refer to, but USB3 port support for USB1 &
USB2
devices can be iffy. Did you switch from using a non-black USB port to a black
one, to USB2?
If all else fails, you can force many BIOS into setup by using the BIOS reset
jumper, or removing the power cord and the CMOS battery long enough for the BIOS
to forget everything. Others will just give a screen reporting low battery
voltage
and offer the keys to either proceed anyway, or go into setup, which without a
recognized keyboard, can be futile.
Rarely do PS/2 connected keyboards pose this kind of obstacle, unless there are
two PS/2 ports stacked (with reference to the board, not the computer), and the
keyboard is connected to the green and/or upper instead of the purple and/or
lower.
