301 Keyboard Error - 3 Different Keyboards (all get lights a'flashin')
My neice has a Deskpro EN (500 Mhz, I think). It was working, had to
be moved and now I get a 301 error. I have tried 3 different keyboards and they all flash when plugged in but that's all I get, no keys work. Then, if I just let the PC sit for a few minutes, NUM/CAPS/SCROLL will flash on and off periodically. Anything I can do here? I'm grateful for ANY suggestions! Kris |

Also, check the pins in the keyboard plug. One may be bent. -- Regards, Hank Arnold "Big Bob Smith" wrote in message ... * Your keyboard may be unplugged or the plug may not be in securely. Click here and scroll down to diagram 2 to see the proper keyboard connection. After checking the keyboard plug, shut down your computer and after a few seconds, turn it on again. If it boots up properly, the problem is solved. * Your keyboard may have a key that is stuck or something is resting on the keyboard causing the keys to be depressed. Remove the item(s) from the keyboard and reboot your computer |

Look for a "CMOS" button on yo0ur system board . Unplug your computer
and hold it down for 60 seconds , then reboot On 8 Nov 2003 18:16:13 -0800, (Kris) wrote: My neice has a Deskpro EN (500 Mhz, I think). It was working, had to be moved and now I get a 301 error.

It is in the correct socket ?
also have you plugged the keyboard in while the machine was on, cos there is a fuse on the mobo i think that can pop btw take a notee of the flashing keyboard leds the can sometimes indicate an error code that can be checked aginst info on the inside of the lid Regards "Sharmon @user.com" Georgenospam wrote in message ...
