And I'm not thinking about upgrading my graphics card drivers any time soon. I used that to manually log in to (low resolution) Windows and do a system restore. So what I ended up doing was borrowing an old PS2 keyboard from my brother.

It just won't appear in the boot device list in BIOS. My motherboard WILL detect the SSD under SATA configuration, and it will boot Windows after post because it sees that it's the only bootable drive. My SSD with my system restore image wasn't in the list in system restore using the disc. I couldn't use my keyboard or mouse, and I couldn't do a system restore using the Windows disc because my motherboard sucks and has problems detecting my SSD in the boot loader (where you select drive boot priority). Yeah, Using that horrible utility made ALL of my USB ports stop functioning completely. I wanted to remove my 13.12 drivers first since the new ones have Mantle and I heard that you need to uninstall old drivers first to install a Mantle driver. I wanted to install the 14.4 WHQL drivers, and I found an (apparently new) 'AMD Clean Uninstall Utility' on their website. I just dealt with two hours of messing with Big Red because it was unusable.
