I just finished building a new gaming pc. It will start and will get into BIOS with keyboard support, but anything past the initial boot screen my keyboard (USB) will not work. If I let it go through the motions it says that Windows was not shut down properly...hit Enter to start Windows nornally..." But I can't hit enter because my keyboard isn't being recognized. If I then let it count down and load automatically it opens the Windows load screen for a second, then I get a flash of BSOD, and the pc reboots itself and starts the process all over again. If I put in the Vista disk to boot from the disk, I cannot "hit any key" to boot from DVD/CD. I was hoping it was not a bad board, but I am thinking it might be. I thought it might be an underpowered PSU. Here is the setup
Gigabyte GA-MA790GP-UD4H
Phenom II X4 940 Black Edition
8GB Dual Channel 1066mHz RAM (2x2x2048) (I tried dropping to 2 DIMMS then 1 DIMM)
GTX 260 Core 216
WD 500 gb SATA
LG DVD/CD SATA
Ultra 550W PSU
The HDD was a recent upgrade to my old PC and I swapped it into this one because I wanted it in my new PC. The PSU was also from the old computer and seemed to work just fine (albeit on a much less powerful PC...Athlon XP 2800+ for example). Everything else save the keyboard and mouse is new.
Any ideas?
