I recently purchased the A7M266-D and I can't seem to figure out a certain problem. First of all, my config: AMD AthlonMP (Palomino) 1.2Ghz x2 256MB Crucial PC2100 DDR Maxtor Diamondmax Plus 60.0GB x2 Pioneer DVD-104s HP 9300i CDRW 64MB GeForce2 GTS SBLive! X-Gamer 10/100 NIC Microsoft Internet Keyboard Pro Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer Well, I put it all together and flipped the switch and was happy to see it POST fine, but as soon as I tried to enter the BIOS I found that the keyboard wasn't responding at all. I can't even turn Caps Lock/Num Lock on or anything, but the lights do flicker during the POST. I even tried two old keyboards to see if that was the problem, but still got no luck. I sent the mobo back to the company I purchased it from and they ran tests and sent it back claiming it works fine. So I hooked it all up again and now it does the same thing but it gives me the error: "Keyboard is locked out... Please unlock key. Press F1 to continue, Del to enter BIOS." I have lots of experience with computers and I have never run into this problem before. I'm pretty sure all the parts (ram and such) are compliant with the mobo. Please let me know if you can help.

Thanks a lot man, working fine now.

I just reinstalled Win2k today and so far (with many restarts) the file ntvdm.exe is constantly running (as shown on the processes menu in taskmanager) and is using 50% of my cpu's at all times. Does anyone know why the Virtual DOS Machine might be running at all times and how I might stop it? Thanks in advance.
