    Keyboard does not work at startup

    Hello,

    I wanted to format my hard drive and so I drove down the computer, before win-Cd pure and rebooted.

    Now I press a button to continue with the formatting process, but the Pc is not responding, so the computer runs normally high and I can not format.

    Bios can I add strangely when you start, but in the menus, eg if the PC crashes and somehow restarts, then comes a message that the PC in safe mode or normal up to, and then I press the arrow keys, it happens .

    Why is this and how can I fix it?

    It is due to the fact that USB ports always late to load on boot, but you can change the BIOS, otherwise purchase ps2 keyboard, they also connect and, if necessary, then the arrow keys to play around.

    Hi,
    I know the problem even with an old PC of a friend, only that it is because the USB mouse. I think it is because that the USB driver only with Windows will be made available.

    Best solution as earlier advised: USB/PS2-Adapter or just reserve a cheap keyboard with PS2 connection, or alternatively a USB-attached mouse with PS2 adapter, then you have a USB mouse in reserve and an adapter for the keyboard .
