hello, i have a similar problem, but it is with a ps/2 keyboard. I can use bios and dos and windows 98 all fine. When i upgraded to win2k my keyboard stops working at the windows2k startup screen. I have since replaced the motherboard and hard drive and keyboard(ps/2) to see if there where any problems there, and it still has the same result.
I then used the mouse(serial) to connect to the net and download all of the latest windows updates to this date. It is also a fresh hard drive with a clean install of win 98 upgraded to win2k(that was the only way I could install win2k with just the mouse), So therefore there are no viruses to my knowledge.
I am very baffled at this problem, and wondering if you have encountered it before, as i can see a few other user have as well, but with no replies..
This is very urgent as i plan for this machine to act as a server, and it is needed to be operatonal soon..
Thanks
