The Award BIOS has a setting one of the first screens  about failures
usually set to all, can be set to ignore keyboard.  I believe
that the AMI BIOS has similar options although I can't find mention
of it in my Tyan Thunder 2 ATX book.  I don't know about Phoenix.
First thing you need to do is tell the list what kind of BIOS/machine
you are working with.
