Whenever I boot my PC the motherboard doesn't recognise my USB keyboard (Razer Lycosa), I've since had to plug an old PS/2 keyboard in and store it at the side of the PC for when I want to enter the BIOS, boot from another drive etc. It's also stopping me putting a password on because I can't type it in...

I've fiddled with all the settings in the BIOS to do with USB devices and keyboards in hope something would sort it, but no luck. I'm running the latest BIOS (1207).

The keyboard works fine when I reach a real OS, and POST recognises 3 keyboards, 1 USB, 1 PS/2 and I assume my USB remote which has keyboard functions.

Also, less of an issue, but my mouse doesn't work in Express Gate (Razer Copperhead), it just sort of sits there. No issue right now as I'm using wireless but when I switch to wired the quick internet would be great for checking my e-mails so would really like to enable EG.

So anyone know what I should do to sort this out?
 
When you say you've messed with bios options for USB.. most BIOS's have a "enable USB keyboard support" option. This is the one you want, as it means "in the bios" rather than anywhere else. I don't know the layout of your bios, so i'm afraid i can't help you find it... Probably under a peripherals menu, if there is one.
 
Cheers for the reply.

On the Asus, under the Advanced menu is the 'USB Configuration' options.

USB Functions [Enabled]
Legacy USB Support [Auto]
BIOS ECHI Hand-Off [Enabled]

I changed the Legacy to enabled and disabled, same issue though.

I haven't found anything else relating to USB in the BIOS, the manual doesn't show anything either.
