I got a new Mobo for a client of mine, he owned a PCChips M863G and i got him a PCChips A31G with a 742 pin Sempron, the thing is that both keyboard and mouse lock when WinXP loads, i tried different Mice and keyboards, clean reinstall Windows and even BIOS update so i gave up, and returned the Mobo, when another one came, it showed the sane problem, any inputs? :D

Are they USB? You might want to try Bart PE and see if it shows the same symptoms.

Do you hear any beeps (other than a single beep) when powering up the system?

No, the problem got solved by unknown means, i installed a new HDD and it worked fine, than i went back to the old one and it worked too.

haha, typical. Its like my Dreamcast... it dosen't work until you hit it a bunch of times... why this would do anything to make it work boggles my mind.

Some things just arent suppose to make sense i guess.

Yeah... yeah... yeah... it's easier to kick your DC around the room than to open it and clean damn PSU board connector :D

Well, maybe it's your PSU. I saw computer with similar symptoms yesteday - keyboard doesn't work, can't see hdd, no ratty It was PSU - when i replaced that Linkworld crap with 350W FSP it was like magic - after reboot windows even found onboard Vortex audio that didn't showed up in devices earlier :)
Check if your system isn't underpowered - go to BIOS health monitor or whatever it called and
look for voltages - if you'll see something like +5v =4.63v or lower , +12v = 12.8v or higher then it is PSU.

And it can be motherboard itself - PCChips su... well not the best motherboard you can get :D
