Hey guys, title pretty much says it all. When my PC boots up, there are two key prompts to get it into windows, and my bluetooth keyboard (logitech mx5000) won't connect. The weird thing is, every once in awhile, it'll work, seemingly at random. I have no idea why it won't pick up, seeing as as soon as I get into the vista password screen, everything's dandy.

Any help would be awesome! Also, first post :D

If your BIOS has something called "Legacy USB Support", try enabling that.

Alright, thanks, I'll see how that works.

It should be noted that I have a wireless keyboard that works fine for the prompts.

Update: After fooling around with my RAM overclock and overdoing it, I had to reset CMOS, change the settings back, bla, bla, bla. However, every time I had to restart to lock in a setting, my bluetooth keyboard worked fine. When I crashed because I mistakenly messed up a voltage value, the keyboard was not recognized. I have a feeling if I voluntarily restart, the keyboard will be picked up, but if I crash it won't.


Hrm.........
