Hey all, I have an ASUS M4A78-EM in my AMD build and it absolutely will not load drivers for my Razer Tarantula during POST or any other non-Windows situations. I had to use an ancient PS2 keyboard to implement my overclock! I enabled USB support in BIOS, but still no dice. I think the motherboard doesn't properly recognize the Tarantula as a keyboard. When I look at the "Attached USB Devices" in BIOS it shows "1 mouse, 1 hub". any ideas at all are appreciated.

"USB Legacy support" is that option that needs to be enabled. If you've enabled that and it still doesn't detect your keyboard then you're pretty much out of luck unless it's something a new bios revision might fix.

USB legacy support is enabled and it still doesn't work. However, I looked at the problem on Razer's website and it says there is a firmware update available for the keyboard that is required for it to work in BIOS... I'm going to give that a shot, otherwise, I'm probably SOL.

New BIOS revision did the trick for me, my G15 V2 did not work in my F4 BIOS, updating to F4G did the trick.

thanks, I'll give that a shot as well, if the keyboard firmware update doesn't help.
