I have the HKHA+ Rev.2
I ordered all of my compnents from the Net and built the system myself just last night (Wednesday). When I tried to boot up it went to the screen that says something like "Press DEL to enter Setup". That is normal since it is a new system and the HD does not work yet (nothing in it). But when I try to press DEL it does not let me, as it seems that the keyboard is not working (I am using the same one right now, but with my laptop). I switched keyboards and the same thing happened, no response from the keyboard. And the weird thing is that it does not give me a "keyoard error". If it matters both are Logitech keyboards. Can I have a bad PS/2 connector on my keyboard or what?
btw, it checks the CPU and it displays the right one (AMD XP 1700+) and goes through the memory check and passes that. That is when it goes to the screen where it asks me to go into the BIOS.
If I go out and buy a USB keyboard, does the Epox KHA+ natively support USB keyboards when it is booting w/o any OS installed? I just want to be able to actually get into the BIOS.
Thanks ahead of time,
Joseph
