I have built a computer that has a P4 2.6 Ghz, ASUS P4R800VM motherboard. Video chipset is ATI Radeon 9100 IGP. The OS is Windows XP. The thing is, I recently purchased a DELL 2005FPW wide aspect flat panel monitor which has 4 USB ports on it. My problem is, the computer doesn't go past the motherboard screen (ASUS-P4R800VM-LOGO) if I start it with a USB device connected to the monitor. None of the devices are accessible, not even the ones that are connected to the CPU (for example the keyboard connected to CPU).
I am able to access the same devices if they are connected to the CPU instead of the monitor, and have the computer started. And also, I am able to access these devices when I hook them to the monitor after the computer has been started. It is just that the computer doesnt respond if I start it with the devices already hooked to the monitor
Devices I have used in testing:
I connected a DELL USB mice to one of the ports, and started the computer..
A digital camera & a webcam.
I contacted DELL, but support is rejected as this seems to be a strange problem & they washed their hands saying that I can access the ports as they seem to be working fine when the devices are hooked once the computer has already been started.
Any help is sincerely appreciated. Thanks for reading & I hope that there are some good debuggers out there!
