An odd thing has started to happen recently with my PC.
On booting up, just before Windows (XP Pro) starts to load up, I get the
error message:
"KEYBOARD IS LOCKED OUT - UNLOCK THE KEY"
The computer then waits for me to press the F1 key to continue loading
Windows, and once Windows is loaded everything is fine. I know the keyboard
itself isn't faulty as I have tried two other keyboards and the same error
appears. I have tried switching from USB to PS2 and again the same error
appears.
I have tried updating the BIOS on my motherboard (ASUS P4S533 Bios Ver 1011)
and that has not fixed the problem.
I'd appreciate some help here as although it isn't a showstopper, it is
annoying.
