Need to reinstall XP. F8 takes me to boot sequence. Problem is on restart keyboard appeears to have no power until after passing F8 option. The 2 times I have been able to get to the boot menu I am unable to change it due to keyboard not being powered/recognized. On my other computers when initial boot happens the keyboard and mouse are powered/recognized immediatley. With this one it does notr happen until end of boot, if that makes sense.
Any suggestions? Is this normal on some MB's? Is there another way to change the Boot sequence. One note, the keyboards I've attempted tu use are USB's connections......does that matter?

As always the help is apprreciated. Thanks

Greg

If your mb has a ps2 plug use a usb to ps2 adaptor for your keyboard
