I cant go past the boot screen that says something like "Press DEL to enter setup" because it is not recognizing my 2 PS/2 or USB keyboards that I own. I have an AMD XP 1700+, Gainward GF2 Ti200, 512 MB Nanya (I pressed down REALLY firmly and heard a "click" when I installed it).
More details are below

I just bought a new 8KHA+ and everything worked fine. :)

Thanks to the people who helped.

cool. Thanks. So I guess I will go out and buy a USB keyboard. I would not be able to stand the wait if I sent it back.

I bought a USB keyboard (the one I am using right now). I plugged it in and booted up and it still did not work. Also something that I forgot to mention is that I get an error message that my Floppy Failed. Would this have to do with no keyboards being able to work?
:frown:

How do I get it to recognize ANY keyboard of mine, USB or PS/2?

Sounds like you may have gotton a bad board. you get it from Newegg? They are very good about RMA's.

The USB keyboard I am using is the Microsoft Natural Elite Keyboard. It is has a PS/2 connection with an adapter that it comes with that makes it into a USB keyboard. I just bought that today and it does not work either. It is the same one that I am using to write this so I know it works. Any suggestions on how I can get ANY keyboard to work with my Epox board? Anybody?

make sure its really pushed into the usb/ps2 slot, i think the ps2 at least has a bad connection
