keyboard not responding after install !!!

[Vulcan 0]

hey..

i installed win xp pro and during the installation everything was fine and of course the keyboard functioned.

after the final boot windows starts up,asks me to put in a user name...but my keyboard does not responde...nothing.num lock or caps lock don't respond either...keyboard is dead.

i might mention that during the bios screen (when restarting, the keyboard is fine.)

 

changed keyboard....didn't help...

i am truely lost here...

 

setup is on a clean install on a totally separated hard disk.

if my hard disk with win2k is plugged into the board averything is fine.

if my other hard disk with win xp is plugged into the board instead,then the keyboard stops responding as soon as the loading windows xp is showing...BUT NOT BEFORE...

 

Please Help me....

mobo :

 

Iwill's VD133 (Via's Apollo pro 133)

 

by the way.. i kinda solved the problem.i don't know why but i unpluggeg my logitech usb mouse and used its adapter to connect it to the ps/2.......that did the job and my keyboard now functions with win XP.

 

Why ?....i have no idea...

It might be something with the Apollo Pro 133/A chipsets, cause people have had problems running USB keyboards under XP on the Abit VP6 too.

but the funny thing is that the mouse was connected to the usb..not the keyboard,and the mouse worked,but the keyboard didn't..

It has to do with the Logitech drivers

If the mouse meses up / it takes the keyboard too.
