Hi guys, I have a problem that is giving me headaches for a while.
My keyboard randomly stops working and I don't know why. It usually happens when I boot into the OS, but sometimes it also stops in the bios but that is not that frequent in the bios. I tried everything to solve this problem(restarted bios to default, removed CMOS battery, removed a ram stick, changed the hard drive but didn't touch the processor yet)
I usually here a beep from my speakers and than my keyboard is like locked , the num lock is still ON but the keyboard doesn't respond. And when that problem happens and when I try to shut down my computer via the windows button the screen shuts down but my PC is still on. I mean the screen is black and everything and windows is shut down but the fans in the pc are still running. That only happens if I try to shut down my PC while my keyboard is not responding.
Oh and forgot to mention when my keyboard stops working I use a onscreenkeyboard and when I type a lot a hear a beep again and than my keyboard starts to respond again, but that only happens sometimes.
Hope you guys can help me :D

Sorry forgot to mention that the keyboard is a ps/2 an old one and I tried different ps/2 keyboards and the problem still occurs, but I didn't try a USB keyboard because I can't buy it right now
