820GM and USB keyboard
Hi,
I have an 820GM system. Just recently, I started using a USB keyboard with it. At first I didn't notice a boot time message about the system not finding a keyboard, because it works great inside Windows Vista. The issue became obvious when I had to go into the BIOS 2 days ago. I kept pressing F2 during boot but it would just go straight into Windows. Is this system the only one in the planet that does not recognize a USB keyboard before the OS runs? |

Hook your other keyboard up so you can get into BIOS and look for a setting like or similar to "Enable Legacy USB Devices" and make sure it is enabled. There may be a single setting or separate settings for keyboard and mouse. Save changes and exit and your USB keyboard should then work. -- SC Tom "Owning a handgun doesn't make you armed any more than owning a guitar makes you a musician." Lt. Col. J.D.
