ASrock Mobo not going into BIOS

Hello everyone, first time assembling a complete build, and I need some help.

In my system I have
i5-3570K
ASRock Z77M Micro ATX
G.Skill Sniper Series 8GB
Samsung 840 Series 120GB
Cannibalized laptop HDDs: Samsung 320Gb & WD Blue 250Gb
SeaSonic 620W
BitFenix Prodigy MicroATX

All fans spin, PSU is on, and HDDs are buzzing. I get to the splash screen and that's it. I press f2, f6, and delete to get to the BIOS and nothing. I wanted to see if its taking a signal from my keyboard so I tried ctrl+alt+delete and the pc resets.

I have tried:
all three of the graphic ports
taking out the motherboard battery and power and waiting 10 minutes.
booting with just the SSD to see if the HDDs were doing something to the config
and using only 1 dimm (tried both dimms one at a time on both dimm slots)

all these came out to the same result. Splash page that doesn't let me into the BIOS.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance for any replies.
