This is really weird... I just finished building my X99 FTW system, and literally the first thing I did was update the BIOS to 1.17 with a flash drive.  Everything is working, but even tapping DEL during a reset sequence doesn't let me get back in.  I'm gathering the keyboard works (I'm using it now); but I just can't seem to get in again.

I have the same problem with my Corsair K95 RGB keyboard.  What I did to fix this problem was use a much older USB keyboard laying around and that got me into the BIOS.  
 
I wish there was a fix for this but not sure if its the keyboard or the BIOS itself.

Well, seventh (or so) time was the charm for me.  It let me in, and I was glad to see my memory was still running at the 2666 mhz I paid for. Of course, it let me in right after posting that, just to make me look stupid, I'm sure. :)

Did you try moving the switch on the keyboard to the BIOS setting?  I know it might be completely obvious but just in case you overlooked it.

Perhaps late with the request. Could we please get BIOS beep guide for EVGA boards.
 
It's really puzzling issue as pretty much every time I connect everything I get different combination of beeps. And sometimes beeps are really alarming as during non-test launch of Trident ICBM! With minimum setup it's ~5-6 beeps. When everything is ON (e.g. when reset is performed) it's just absurdly long concerto of ~20 beeps. Watched WarGames movie? Exactly like that!

Which Bios guide would be the closest match for the FTW-K, the FTW?
Thanks!
