keyboard error or no keyboard present

whys it saying this? it was all ok n working then I turned it on and it said this. Ive tried 2 diff keybords but both the same problem. I tried a ps2 to usb converter but it did the same thing...the 3 lights on the keybord come on as soon as I plug it to a usb port but then go straight of a second later. they don't come on at all plugging into the ps2 port. the usb ports do work so I don't know what the problem is..

any ideas?

if you've tried a couple of ps2 convertors, best bet is get a cheap ps2 k/b.

only tried 1 converter but they are all gonna be the same. dont see how a ps2 kb would work when the converter aint but suppose its worth trying..
