I have a USB keyboard and a wireless mouse when I start my computer and it goes into the bios and says press F10 to enter setup, for example, the keyboard will not work. After I get to window 10 login screen it works fine. Please HELP.

I have heard of that problem when using a USB keyboard different from the one that came with the PC. Try a different USB keyboard and try using a different USB port. What is happening - the keyboard is not recognised until Windows boots up and loads the drivers.

If the only time a problem has been detected is on boot up, be aware/prepared that a wireless keyboard may behave in the same manner. In fact it is more likely, but just on bootup.
