Has anyone had keyboard/mouse PS2 issues on the Expert boards?
Last night I was doing some coding on my rig, then all of a sudden the keyboard stops working. Hmmm, did a repost and still the same problem. Here are the symptoms, and yes I tried a different keyboard. I have not tried a USB keyboard as I do not own one. And even if a USB keyboard would work I dont think I should have to use one...the PS2 port should work. My mouse is USB, but did come with a PS2 adapter...I am gonna go try that once I post this thread and see what happens.
On post the keyboard lights do the normal turn on scenario, but usually the NUMLOCK key will remain lit ... but now it does not.
Ok, so I jump into the bios. But as soon as I get into the bios the keyboard does not work. So, it works right at the initial boot but seems to stop after that as I can obviously get into the bios using the DEL key.
This is an odd problem. I did a thorough check of the board to make sure there isnt anything causing a short, and also tried a bios reset. I really doubt its OS driven as it happens prior to getting into windows - so an OS reinstall should be the last thing to try. And not likely the psu is involved either. I really dont want to have to RMA this board as I have a ton of work that I need to do for school.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
