Hi Tim,

Wehn USB first arrived, BIOSes often did not support it, or would only
support it if enabled in the BIOS.  Could it be your BIOS is that old
and the PCI USB card a distraction in that even if the on-board USB
still worked, the keyboard could not control the BIOS or grub?

grub-reboot(1) will let you select the OS to boot on the next reboot,
for one time only.  That could get you into Windows without grub control
at boot time.

Cheers, Ralph.
