The Keyboard Does Not Work When Booting A Computer

When you turn on the computer, if the boot selection window appears, the keyboard does not respond to keystrokes and cannot be selected. The same thing when you need to boot from the installation disk when they offer to press any key or select the disk from which the system will boot. Tell me what could be the reason. In vindos, the keyboard works fine. With respect, Nicholai.

Most likely this is a USB keyboard. You need to go into BIOS https://smartronix.ru/kak-zajti-v-bios-vojti and enable the “USB keyboard support” parameter

valentine. Igor Daurov

If the BIOS sees your keyboard and mouse, and when Windows 7 boots up, the keyboard and mouse become inactive, you need to go to BIOS-Advanced-USB Configuration, there is an Intel xHCI Mode item, opposite it you need to put Disabled and the mouse with the keyboard will work.

Masim

How. Dude! Do you understand what you write? What am I going to do all this for you. What an absurdity! Ahhhh, I’m on fire!

SMARTRONIX.RU

Check the keyboard on another PC, or if it is usb, then drag it to another port.

Maxim Popov. Violetta

But what if I do not have the “USD keyboard support” parameter in the BIOS?

SMARTRONIX.RU

Check the keyboard on another PC. If it works, then the problem is similar and you need to look for a similar menu item in BIOS. There are a lot of BIOSes, maybe the option above will help, from Igor Daurov.

How to get into the BIOS when the keyboard does not react during startup.

What kind of answers go in the subject, they do not solve the problem.

The keyboard is in order. checked, the problem is in some kind of startup process.

SMARTRONIX

The keyboard is defective or the usb port is not working. Reset the BIOS to factory defaults.

Nikita

Hello, I have a current problem. I decided to reinstall Windows 10. And after rebooting the PC, I switched to choosing the language. And the keyboard does not work. Help solve.

SMARTRONIX.RU

Hello. Perhaps it needs to be included in the BIOS.

Vitaliy

Tell me, I’ll extend your silent topic. When I turn on the keyboard does not turn on (recently it happened). You need to turn off the computer, remove the keyboard connector from the computer and insertthen if you turn on the computer then it will hang on Windows. you need to go into the BIOS and just get out of it and then the keyboard starts working normallybut with every inclusion the same thing again! what happened can not understand tell me to come across?

Vitaliy

The keyboard is not USB, PS / 2. I just want to say right away that if the keyboard was not working, then why does it work after the above steps.

SMARTRONIX

Vitaly, you probably have something with usb ports, try replacing the power supply temporarily

Alexei

Hi, I have an asus laptop, the thing is, when the keyboard and mouse do not work on windows, I can’t even enter the BIOS, they also inserted the usb keyboard and it didn’t help. I took out the battery and made jumpers. Did not help, is there a solution?

SMARTRONIX

Alexei, if the laptop has an indication of the CapsLock key, press it when you turn it on and when windows is loaded, if the indicator does not light up, apparently your keyboard is malfunctioning. You must check your laptop at a service center.

Andrei

Hello. I installed the HDD and in the menu where you need to press Delete or Tab to go to the OS or BIOS, respectively, my keyboard (USB) failed, plug in p / s2 when it starts, 3 lights light up and then go out. Keyboard workers checked on laptop. Before installing the HDD, everything worked fine.

Zholaman

I can’t get into the BIOS on the ASUS ET2221I all-in-one, there are only usb ports ps / 2 is missing, the system is stuck at boot, just press F2 or DEL, the keyboard does not work, the usb ports disconnected after switching the boot to IDE. switched because it didn’t work; not loading from disk; not loading from flash drive. Any ideas how to fix this.

SMARTRONIX

Try connecting another keyboard to the all-in-one, try it in different USB sockets, if you can’t enter the BIOS, then something with the all-in-one USB ports needs to be taken to the service.

SMARTRONIX

Vadim, you wrote a reply a bit late.
You can connect a pc / 2 keyboard or use an adapter for a USB keyboard.

Lexand

I have the same problem, I can not enter the BIOS.
There is no PC / 2 connector on the motherboard. How to be # 128577;

Take a usb keyboard from your friends and try logging in after rebooting

Lexand

I took another claudia, the picture did not change, during the loading of Windows, the clave does not work. When it boots, it works.

SMARTRONIX. Alex

Useless, Numlock indication is not an indicator of keyboard performance. Indication is the keyboard does not work at startup

SMARTRONIX

You can check the keyboard on another computer.

Fanis

The keyboard works fine in my BIOS, but in the OS, when I need to enter a password, the keyboard stops working. I tried both usb and ps2

SMARTRONIX

Perhaps you connected the pc | 2 keyboard already with the PC running, if so, turn it off, connect this keyboard and turn on the PC, immediately try to enter the BIOS
In this case, pay attention, immediately after turning on, all 3 indicators of the keyboard should blink. If you can enter bios, find the parameter associated with USB and set “enable”

Andrew

Reset the BIOS by removing the battery from the motherboard. and it will work! Good luck

Maksim

And the computer will not burn from this?

SMARTRONIX

Turn off the computer, disconnect the power cable from the power supply, remove the battery, press the power button several times, wait 15-20 minutes, then you can insert the battery back, insert the wire and turn on the system unit. This operation is done if you can’t get into the BIOS settings and for some reason you cannot choose “reset and reboot” there

Hello. not used the computer for more than six months. Then he decided to turn it on, but it does not load. Even the BIOS does not reach. At the same time, the keyboard does not work and the mouse glows but does not respond. I tried Claudia and none of USB and SP2 worked. What could be the reason and how to eliminate?

SMARTRONIX

Hello, disconnect all external equipment from the PC, connect only the power, monitor, try turning it on, to what point does the download go?

Arman

Thank you very much. Thanks to you, I solved my problem

Senets

Hello. This is my situation. The bios has flown, when loaded, it reaches the point of hpa bios not available and starts loading the previous version of the bios and then is chopped off. I did a complete reset of the BIOS by closing the CLRTC, removing the battery. Then, when turned on, a window appears where there are three points, it will reset, return to the previous version and a hundred more. A check mark is on “return to the previous version”. I am given 15 seconds to choose. This is where I came across a problem. Can not choose. The keyboard does not work. Neither yusb nor ps / 2. At home 2 working keyboards. Despite the fact that when the computer is off, you insert ps / 2, the keyboard blinks, but when you turn it on, it does not blink and does not burn. What could be the problem? Thanks.

SMARTRONIX

Hello. Try connecting the pc / 2 keyboard first, and then turning on the computer because This device with such connectors is detected once upon startup.

Senets

Good afternoon. There is an ASUS laptop. The model is a very old hard drive has an ATA interface. OS. Windows XP. Stopped loading. precisely, the download reaches the “User” and “Password” windows. Because no password, press Enter and the download continued. Now the laptop does not respond to keystrokes (including on an external USB keyboard). It’s impossible to enter BIOS. keys do not respond. There is a solution?

SMARTRONIX

Hello. Try booting in safe mode. Also try inserting the windows installation disc and reinstalling the system.
Logging into bios should work if the keyboard works at all, try immediately after switching on often and with little effort to press the same key (either DEL or F1 or F2)

Vadim

Motherboard Asus P5LD2 SE The situation is as follows: All keyboards work fully before entering the BIOS, as soon as I entered the BIOS it doesn’t work at all! Even CTRLALTDEL (to restart the computer, it felt like the computer was completely frozen in the BIOS) I turned off all the sources, it doesn’t help ! Tell me, you really need to get into the settings! And it worked without problems (even updated the BIOS, removed the battery in order to reset it by default, it does not help!)

SMARTRONIX

Does the mouse in bios work? If yes, reset to factory settings. The keyboard can try pc | 2 if usb does not work
Update bios firmware from the latest windows, from the manufacturer’s website

Try connecting the keyboard to a different connector. If friends have a pc | 2 keyboard check with it.
Try switching the keyboard to another slot when you are in the password entry window, wait 3 minutes after connecting and check

My BIOS keyboard turned off after installing the USB 3.0 drivers for the front panel on the Gigabate motherboard. It is solved by switching the keyboard to the USB 2.0 port on the front of the computer (if any)
