Re: Unable to reboot when keyboard is plugged into USB

Hi, it sounds like your BIOS is needing reminding of it's settings, but strange it should only affect the keyboard.
Try booting with the BIOS Default settings.
If no luck, remove the motherboard battery for a while and/or clear the CMOS by moving the jumper pins on the board. Instructions on how to do this, and the location of the Clear CMOS Jumper will be in your manual.

Personally, I'd install a new motherboard battery. Although they should last many years, like all other batteries, sometimes this is not the case.

Did these problems begin after installing new hardware or software?
