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

Problem resolved!
1) Shut down PC
2) Disconnected Power from the back
3) I then removed cmos battery
4) Disconnected Hard Disk Drive ( so PC had no choice can only load to BIOS)
5) Waited 5 to 10 mins, switched on PC with disconnected HDD and rapidly tapped on F10 ( or your relevant key to bring up BIOS)
6) BIOS Loaded - and I was able to undone my mistake.
