That was my hope. I have not tested it any more, as I have a busy day.
There is one other USB oddity, I need to have my wireless keyboard plugged into
a specific USB slot to have the keyboard available during the boot. Otherwise it
does not show up until XP starts. It was quite annoying before I figured out the
workaround as I was doing a fair amount of stuff in the bios.
