If you dont need to boot from usb (like most people) then just turn off that. -if you use a usb keyboard and/or mouse there is an option in the bios too, check that. (well if you have a real bios and not something bioslike form dell/compaq/hp). read your bios manual. -if the bios settings dont help bios update is a point. update the bios only if you know what you are doing and you know that this problem is solved in the never bios (-> check changelogs/readme/bugs solved of the new bios revision).
