USB Wireless Keyboard with Mint
 

I have just installed a Technika usb wireless keyboard / mouse on Mint.
the problem I have is as the wireless settings does not boot until the system has booted I need to keep an old keyboard on the floor so I can hit enter to start the boot process.
Is there anyway I can configure startup so it goes directly into boot mode and not stop and ask me how I wish to boot ( boot, safe mode etc)

That should be a BIOS setting. When you turn the computer on, before any of the boot devices are engaged, there should be a message on the screen prompting you to press F2 (or F10 or F12, or ??) to change the system settings.

Many thanks Rock Doctor, went into Bios and enabled Legacy keyboard and mouse and now everything is cooking on gas.
