BIOS settings and or BIOS revision is usually involved. A BIOS update
may be needed.
BIOS "Legacy" support settings may need to be enabled.
You can also install (reinstall) the keyboard drivers in windows.
Just because it doesn't scan does not prevent you from manually
installing or reinstalling a driver.
You did not mention what make/model of keyboard.

It's remotely possible that the keyboard is actually the culprit.
