Hello, I have accidently disabled the usb security  on my BIOS, and now all my ports stopped working. I am unable to open the computer (cause of a very tight screw) and i am also unable to enter bios cause my keyboard and mouse wont work. I do not have a PS/2 port sadly. I am currently using a all in one pc core I3
