Hi Guys!
Noobie to thf site here! But pretty good on the old tech side! Right, question for you all:
I have just installed a new P4i65G and 2.6 P4 in my machine. Built it all up and transferred my HDD accross. Now I KNOW what you're going to say about me having popped XP on it a-fresh...that will be my last resort at the moment!
I had a few IDE related BSOD, which I sorted by plugging in my HDD to my old mobo and changing the controller drivers to the standard ones. Now, once I did that, I then loaded up to the login window of XP Pro...only to find that my keyboard (ps/2) and mouse (USB) are not working at all! The they work fine on my old mobo and the keyboard is happy enough to let me navigate through the BIOS, but when it actually loads the login, it stops working, so I can't actually log in...
Now, here's the funny part: The NUM Lock light is on...but that's it. Also, if I plug the mouse in using the PS/2 adaptor, the light on the bottom of the mouse is on, but it's still unresponsive. If I use USB for the mouse, the light flickers for a couple of seconds (and is on while in BIOS) but then goes out when on the main screen.
I'm stuck! I've moved the jumpers on the ps/2 usb power pins to both positions and they still haven't worked.
Help please!! If you can sort this, I'll have your babies!!
Thanks in advance guys!
