Hi,

I am facing this problem for some time with my keyboard.
When I start my PC,sometimes the keyboard does not start.

I have always observed in the past that when I start my PC the 3 leds on my keyboard are lit for some time till PC starts but now none of these leds work and keyboard does not work.

Also when I press the F5 key in desktop,the keyboard stops responding and then when I standby and again try to log in ,even my mouse does not respond.


Please help me guyz!

Thanks you!

Try cleaning the PS2 connector and port.

yup, clean both KB's & m/b's ports.

& if possible try any other KB (your friend's).
