Non responsive server BIOS

Hi all.... I have a old PowerEdge 410 server that I am trying to get working. This machine use to work perfectly until I decided to replace (windows server 2008) the operating system with windows 10. Now I am unable to get into the BIOS regardless of which keys or combination of keys I press. Is it possible someone could advice me on how to resolve this problem?

 

Thanks in advance

    Thank you for the service tag.

    F2 during POST should get you into the BIOS. Sounds as though the keyboard may be disabled. Try loading the Support Live Image found at:

    You can also try reseating the CMOS battery. That will clear NVRAM and BIOS.
