JackHalford Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 I think there has been many threads with this topic but I have another problem. I'm not very good at computer terms but please tolerate me :DI have my backup cd but there is a problem. When it says "press any key to boot from Cd," It doesnt let me. At first I thought my keyboard was playing up but I tried with another one. I also tested by pressing num lock + caps lock. I'm not sure what I can do to solve it but any help would be greatly appreciated :) Thanks in advance, Jack.P.s If I posted in the wrong section, I apologize :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 Welcome to the Windows Forum.Is it a USB keyboard? If so, do you have a PS/2 keyboard you can try with? (Or a USB-PS/2 connector?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wickedadmin Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 If it is one of those USB to PS/2 adapters like mentioned, I would get rid of that. I have run into a lot of those failing. Those adapters are worthless anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarecrow Man Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 I agree with the USB keyboard posts. This happens often if the BIOS cannot handle USB keyboards. Often they have a setting for the BIOS to handle USB but it is always named differently, or may not be there at all. Try PS2 and if that fails, try a different keyboard or setting in the BIOS. Consult the manual first before changing settings.As for your problem, have a look here as it may help:http://www.windowsforum.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=15213 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
