ps/2 keyboard not responding at login prompt

More information if it helps..

I got into safe mode and took off the password. I can see now that
there's some kind of error.. It says "This device cannot start (Code
10)".

I have uninstalled, reinstalled, tried another keyboard, loaded the
driver, and I still get this problem with windows loaded. Keyboard
works fine in bios and in safe mode, and will work after install until
reboot.

Anybody?

Since I received an email asking me about this, I will reply for future
users with this problem..

Make sure you turn OFF USB Mouse support in the bios.. I don't know
the relationship, but this solves the problem.

Whoops... I forgot to mention this is for users of later generation
gigabyte motherboards.
