Hello

I have a problem with my keyboard stops resonding after I press "Delete" to enter BIOS. I have no problem getting inside the bios but after I enter I have between 0-15sec before it stops responding. Its not a total PC freeze at the bios clock keeps runnig, showing the time. If Im quick and lucky to get a few sec of movability in the bios I can change settings and save without a problem.

If Im "not" entering BIOS the PC works perfect.. Boots windows, stable during stresstests and many hours of gaming. Have been running memtest, prime95, 3dmark etc without problems.

First I thought.. maybe its my keyboard, so I tried connecting it through USB instead of PS2 with no change. Then I tried another PS2 keyboard and still no change.

The only thing I can come up with is that I noticed the problem after I moved the hardware from one case to another. But I might have been there before as I haven't entered BIOS in the old case for quite some time.

Any suggestions to what ever may cause this??

Hardware
MB: Asus P5b-E
CPU: Intel Duo Core 2 E6400 running at stock speed.
Ram: 2x1Gb Cellshock DDR6400 Ram
BIOS setting: loaded bios default settings and set the Dram voltage according to the Cellshock recomendation.

Regards

Afaid I haven't got an answer, but my P5B-Deluxe has always done this off and on, thru many bios upgrades.
