Why won't my Microsoft keyboard work during the start sequence () trying to get into the BIOS)?

When you start up/reboot my system, my Microsoft Natural Wireless ergonomic Kayboard 7000 does not work to thus preventing me the ability to get into the BIOS to make the necessary changes. Can do something about it? Before ask you, Yes, legacy USB support is enabled.

This problem is usually a problem with the BIOS Setup.  Several BIOS can have different settings to enable / disable the USB keyboard / mouse access.  These tend to be listed as:

Use USB legacy...

Activate USB keyboard...

It is a major problem with motherboards that have the old PS/2 ports for keyboard / mouse.

Also, I found that if your keyboard is not directly connected to a rear USB port, you may have this problem.

And according to the number of devices USB is connected to your PC, if you 'maxed out' device (all ports used), your keyboard is not working as it should during the windows "pre-seed" process (including the BIOS screens "P.O.S.T.".)

    Hello

    The fact that it does not work with a clean install starts to point to some kind of hardware problem, although it is strange that he will run in Mode without failure.

    Click with the right button on the taskbar, select Manager tasks, click the Startup tab - right click on each entry in turn and select Disable.  Once completed, restart the computer and see if there is no change.

    An update of the bios (F.39 Rev.A) is also available on the Product Page , which can be useful if you have not already done it - if you decide to apply, make sure you unplug all the devices (including the usb keyboard) before starting the update.

  • Mouse Microsoft and Center keyboard problems during the recent Windows Update

    Windows 7 Professional 32/64

    Windows Update, it is a week downloaded Microsoft Mouse and keyboard Center.  Apparently it did not install correctly on Windows 7.  Messages of two windows now pop up when you start.  They are the exact same messages one above the other which must be clicked off the coast.  Here's the exact message:

    "There is a problem with the installation of the mouse and keyboard software Center.  To resolve this problem, you must remove the mouse and keyboard software from the Center, and then rerun the implementation of centre of keyboard and mouse.  For more information on the point to add or remove a program see Windows Help. »

    Message meaning, but the action of removing the software is not possible.  In the list of programs highlight Microsoft Mouse and keyboard software Center and you receive only one choice.  This choice is Uninstall, with no choice of repair .  Microsoft is lazy, or finally reached being just plain stupid.  When you click the installation here is the screen that opens:

    "Setup cannot continue because one or more of the required installation files are missing or corrupted. Rerun Setup from the CD-ROM of the software or any other facility reliable source. »

    If you cannot uninstall or repair the screwed version, then when you try to re - install, it won't let you move forward, and stipulates that you already have the software installed and it will not properly work, or will not uninstall or repair it properly.  You're essentially stuck between the hammer and the anvil.  I don't want these two double messages showing when I start my computer.

    For some strange reason, I think that this software is not properly tested to work on Windows 7.  I never install driver updates provided in Windows Update, but my wife has checked the box as an optional update.  Big mistake!

    What can I do to remove this Microsoft Mouse and keyboard software Center of my computer.  I downloaded the version 2.0.161.0 and 2.0.161.0 and won't install until the problem with the faulty software installed is removed.  WHERE IS THE BUTTON REPAIR?

    Thank you

    You must have the patience of Job to work for MSFT.

    I, too, have the same problem as Mr. Butler, w2 further complications:

    (1) assuming that it was a Win Update that caused the problem, I went to system restore to restore to an earlier time and was shocked to find that, even if my Protection system is activated, it was never a restore point created.
    (2) in addition to this annoying pop-up message, I have now lost everything except text in all my applications (Word, Publisher, etc.) and my browsers.  No display no graphics.

    I tried your method 1 fix and received a message that it only worls on 64 bit systems.  Mine is 32.

    I tried method 2 and tried to install; Rec'd msg saying I had to uninstall it first.

    I'm taking your advice, but so far I lost three hours on this and have gotten nowhere.  Suggestion, please...

  • Microsoft is working on the lower graph Windows for low configure PC running on P4 processors?

    Original title: Microsoft Windows XP updates

    International news that I listen to Microsoft is Shutting Down Windows XP support! In my opinion, good decision but it is a problem here!

    Problem is that half of the poor Nations currently work on old systems of the world (Pentium 4) as demand for the latest Version of Microsoft Windows (Win 7 Vista) Pentium 4 is not reliable...

    Is that Microsoft is working on low graphics Windows for this Type of low PC configuration?

    Hello

    We have no information on this version of Windows. RT 8.1 8.1/windows platform is the most recent Microsoft and we will see the updated versions of these systems in the future.

    In my opinion, Intel Pentium 4 series of processors can run Windows 7 quite well, provided a sufficient amount of memory living and disk space are available. You can have a look at system requirements of Windows 7 for more information on this.

  • keyboard does not work when you start. Unable to get to the bios screen.

    When I reboot to get to the bios screen my keyboard does become functional until windows load. I don't remember what is a problem in the past, but since I disconnected everything recently I was wondering if it happens to be a USB port which remains hot during startup.  I have a Gigabyte motherboard.

    Thanks for all the help.  I found a port that remained hot during startup.  Not an easy feat because there are 6 USB ports on my MB.  Then after may restart to finally find, I remembered that I have also 2 USB ports on my Dell monitor that remain hot even when the computer is off.  A lesson I will never forget.
