I had the same issue after updating the bios. Pressing F8 opens the boot options menu. From there if you select "Enter Setup" you should get into the bios.

I also re-updated the bios and the delete key is working again.

^To all most of the time it's 1 of 2 reasons :
1. Using a non-USB 2.0 port (use the BLACK USB 2.0 @ I/O
2. Incompatible USB Keyboard (try a different Keyboard or a PS/2 Keyboard).
