Hey guys,
Just finished building by new Z170 Skylake system. All boots fine and can easily get into the BIOS.
My problem is, as soon as the system hands over to my Windows 7 installation disk, I lose all control over my keyboard and mouse. All lights go off and nothing responds.
They both work absolutely fine in the BIOS.
SPECS:
- Motherboard: MSI Z170A Krait Gaming ATX
- CPU: Intel i5-6600k @ stock
- RAM: 8GB (2x4GB) DDR4
- PSU: EVGA Supernova GS 550
- GPU: EVGA GTX 970 SC
The BIOS options give me the following:
- USB Controller: On/Off
- XHCI hand-off: On/Off
- Legacy USB support: On/Off/Auto
Things I've tried:
- Turning off Legacy USB support, effect: Nothing
- Turning off XHCI hand-off, effect: KB+M lights remain on and powered, but dont respond
- Using an old PS/2 keyboard, effect: Works fine, can even complete the Windows 7 installation, but without a PS/2 mouse, I can't download any drivers so just get stuck again.
Anyone got any suggestions?
