Bump

I can't believe noone has a opinion about this problem!!!!

sometimes (about 1 out of 10 times) when i boot my sig rig, the mouse does not work. my fix: unplug mouse from comp (still powered up) and plug back in; then the mouse works fine.

GOOD LUCK

Get out of the stoneage and get a usb keyboard and mouse

Look in the area where the keyboard ahd mouse contact the shield and see if there is pressure being applied. there's sometimes a ground strip that doesn't tuck under and it pushes against the area of the key/mouse riser.

Joe Camel tried that several times.

Anvil why waste a usb port when there are ps2 ports made for kb/m

Jetmech. I'm not using a I/O shield right now. I thought of that and removed it to eliminate that as a possible problem.

Any other thoughts?????

How about gluing in the keyboard and mouse

Tismedt · Feb 28, 2004

Getting the ps2 plugs to stay in is not the problem

I'de have em in jbweld if it was

. Looks like I'll have to tear it down again (third time) and insulat the standoffs I might change the PSU while i'm at it.I'm running a fortron 350 aurora. But this same setup was running fine in the coolermaster case. It just driven me nuts.

Well I hate to admit but it's working fine with usb kb/m. I tore it down for the last time again to try to solve this and it did the same thing. I can only assume my ps2 ports are dead

No RMA for this board cuz its been modded so I guess I'll have to live with it.

The P4P800 I bought from Kunaak had the KB port quit working too and I have to use USB KB on it now too. Kinda weird, I think mine shorted out on the case. It now gets a keyboard interface error on bootup.

On the subject of usb ports. They allow hot swapping of keyboard and mouse.

Tismedt · Feb 29, 2004

Well it seems to be the kb is the problem. I pluged it into the usb and mouse ps2 is working for now. I still have to hook up a few things ie floppy, and 1 more hdd. I'll get into that tomorrow. If it acts up again I'll post here.
