BootMagic requires pressing keys when pulg in, but keyboard protocol converters will not work.

First, some/many keyboards will not send scancodes for keys pressed before powered.
Second, converters will not be able to receive scancodes at very begining of startup.

workarounds:

  • add some delay before checking BootMagic keys
  • use Magic commands instead
