I think it's just cause of the operating system I'm using, Windows 32 isn't designed to run with more than 3.5GB of ram, so I'm assuming it's overlooking the card that's making it go over. To rectify this I want to install windows 7 RC 64 bit. However I'm having a big issue starting the disk up, I'm supposed to have it start during the BIOS setup by pushing F12 or whatever, however my keyboard doesn't seem to want to do that.

It's a Razer Turantula and the home site is slow at getting back to me, maybe someone can shed some light, I've updated the Driver, I've unplugged all other USB cables, leaving only the keyboard in, and I've tried that in every single USB slot and it won't work. I did everything they told me to do and nothing worked, I won't want to go out and spend money on a regular keyboard just do this, that'd be stupid... Can anyone help me get the disk running during startup or even my keyboard working during startup?

hi Some computers have an option for legacy USB support - you can try enabling this if it’s available.via the bios

How am I supposed to do that if the problem is the fact I can't get into the BIOS setup?

It's F12 and the menu doesn't show up when I hit the button, the keyboard is lit up but it doesn't seem to be working.
