Dell Dimension 2400. Error message 8602.
Auxilliary device failure. Keyboard controller failure. Message says strike F1to continue, F2 to run setup utility.

I cannot do anything because the keyboard does not respond. Tried three different keyboards now. Tried booting into DOS using floppy and Linux on DVD but always get the same message. Disconncted everything except keyboard.if

Just been looking on a Dell forum and someone has written that if replacing keyboard does not help motherboard needs replacing.

Any suggestions please. Thanks in advance.
