Title: GA-F2A88XM - DS2 - Keyboard problems.
Post by: Purgatory on July 21, 2014, 05:10:00 pm

Hi Guys
your help in solving the following problem(s) would be greatly appreciated. My wife has a modest PC which uses the above MB. The problem relates to keyboard issues.

If I plug in her PS/2 keyboard - this works well, BUT, I cannot get into the bios using the delete button at start up.
If I plug in her USB wired keyboard - I can get into the bios, BUT, I run into issues when the PC is awakened from sleep. It occasionally goes into a black screen with 'RESUME WINDOWS LOADING'. However this appears to freeze the whole machine. There are two options showing at this time, but the up/down arrows do not move me to the alternate options.

If I shut down the PC and refit the PS/2 keyboard, again it fires up BUT will not allow me to enter the bios ! ??? ??? ???
I suspect I have wrongly interpreted a bios setting or have missed some thing obvious.
Your thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Colin

Are you sure the delete key works on the ps2 keyboard.  Never had a problem with a ps2 keyboard but have had problems with a usb.
