1147582 2010-10-28 00:43:00 I have a similar situation .

-I have a custom PC keyboard emulator that plugs into the PS2 port and have used it with various PCs .

-Just got a new motherboard .

-Now on this new PC setup with a the new motherboard, the PC keyboard emulator works in BIOS but fails to function once windows XP boots up .

-Driver in windows (under Device mgr) appears to be the same on both PC setups with the exact same version of driver .

-Basically with one motherboard PC keyboard emulator works in bios and once windows boots . In the newer setup, PC keyboard emulator works in bios but stops functioning once XP boots .

HELP!!!!

P . S . I have Halt on errors off in both setups .

I also notice the BIOS settings are the same in the 2 machines but there is a different motherboard maker .

Somehow this issue is related to how XP interacts with the motherboard .

Anyone have an idea?

Respectfully in your debt,

1147583 2010-10-28 02:25:00 Im stuck at the login screen since theres no on screen keyboard and the last account I was on requires a password to log on to (admin). All tested keyboards were wired and ordinary (no special features). On that computer the ONLY things I can do is access the bios and shutdown.

:pf1mobmini:

You could try removing the password with ntpasswd.
