MSI P35 Neo2-FR, Can't get to BIOS

Hello All,
I'm in need of some help, please. I have an MSI P35 Neo2-FR motherboard and I can't access my BIOS. I recently reformatted my HDD and put XP on it. While Vista was on it, I was able to press Del and get to my BIOS and change the boot sequence so that I could put my XP back on it. Now that I have XP on it, I tried to change the boot sequence and can't get to my BIOS.

After the PC restarts, I immediately start pressing Del and nothing happens. I can't even press F11 to access the Boot Menu. It seems that the USB keyboard does not "initialize" soon enough for me to press Del now for some reason.

My next step was to try a PS2 keyboard. It won't even work so I assume I've disabled it in my BIOS or something.

I would rather not reset CMOS so I can keep all of my OC settings. Any recommendations? I sure would appreciate the help!

bios usb support could also simply be turned off.
i would just try and scribble down your oc settings from your post screen as much as you can (or just get it off cpu-z).
then just reset the cmos like you said.
 
i dont have the same motherboard but are you sure you have to ress F11 to enter your bios?

for me its DEL (Delete button)

ive ran Xp and vista here and it didnt make any diffrence to boot,do what Vipernitrox said and try reset the cmos like you said.
