Hey everyone, I turned on EXPO 1 and now my RAM is running at 5600MHz. When I power on my keyboard, it turns on right when the BIOS menu appears to choose DEL, but then the power to the keyboard cuts again. Even though I selected DEL, it still boots into Windows instead of BIOS. I think clearing the CMOS would be better, but I’m not sure if that will let me access BIOS with my faster RAM under EXPO 1. My motherboard is a Gigabyte X670 AORUS ELITE AX. I also tried using USB 2.0 ports just in case. Any advice?

Power on your system and press the left shift button while clicking the restart option. A prompt will appear, showing a reboot process. Move through the options until you locate the setting for UEFI configuration.

Have you experimented with linking the keyboard to another USB port? Ideally, avoid the blue one (USB3.0)—it powers up immediately, so the keyboard should activate right away when the PC starts or remain active even without the computer running. (As seen on my MB.)
