I got it now I was pressing del like crazy and i made it ;D
I´ll print the tips from the link above, and tomorrow I´ll try to fix it. If I don´t write back tomorrow that means that I destroyed my pc with BIOS, just kidding ;D

Thanks again guys

cheers!

OK, I'm glad you managed to enter the BIOS... at least, some progress...

My advice to you is - DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING ELSE OTHER THAN ENABLE USB LEGACY SUPPORT !

I'm serious, you can do some serious damage... not physical though, but you may make some changes that will prevent your system from booting. Even that can be easily fixed, but you really don't need additional troubles...  ;)

I would suggest all devices as the other alternatives would still leave you without a mouse..  Also don't forget to save as you exit.

You're welcome, I'm glad that you became another happy avast! forum member  ;D

And yes, just sellect all devices, not just because of your mouse, but because you may need access to some other USB devices as well...

Cheers !
