Hi guys,
I'm at a bit of a loss; it's just after 11am here and I already feel like mixing myself a martini to ease the tension:
Yesterday I did a fresh install of XP Pro on an 800Mhz PIII, 512MB ram, 20GB HD generic box. Not sure yet what kind of mobo I have. Basically, the keyboard is refusing to work; not even at the POST, so I can't get into the BIOS to play around. During one of the many ensuing reboots, before XP loaded, I got message saying that there is a hardware issue and that I should go into the BIOS to alleviate the problem. Ha. That only happened once though-- after that no more messages came up.
Initially, after installing XP, the keyboard worked fine, but then I installed SP2 and that's when my problems began. Everything else seems to be working ok, but the keyboard is sitting down with it's arms folded and lower lip pushed out saying it doesn't want to play anymore. :4-dontkno
Any ideas? Anyone? Bueller?
Thanks a bunch,
snej
