keyboard failure when trying to enter safe mode

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)

What kind of keyboard? A USB keyboard won't work in safe
mode unless the motherboard and BIOS support legacy USB. A
wireless keyboard won't work either.

Spend $5 and get a old style PS/2 keyboard for the
troubleshooting.
