usb controller initializing hangs in bios

[Lord ZipLoc]

hi
well got my dream set up and i have a asus p5ld2 deluxe and when booting into the bios i cannot even use the keyboard/ sometimes it goes into setup(when i push delete 1000 times) and gets stuck at initializing usb controllers called asus they claim its my ram i have corsair value select ddr2 533 ram however i believe its the board getting new board and supported ram but now have t0o wait almost a week for it. tryed a million things resting the drivers unpluging things one at time ect.... what do you guys think

Yeah, USB peripherals usually have a hard time in BIOs...mine don't work when I'm installing Windows. I have both my keyboard and mouse on PS/2 though, it's more stable and there's absolutely no speed difference in the two.

yes but i couldnt even get windows to install i think my board is dead defective or i have unsupported ram

 

[Mrvile]

Have you tried using the PS2 slots?

 

[Lord ZipLoc]

i am usign the ps2 solts so no clue why i get the error

 

[Mrvile]

Sooo..it still hangs while using the PS/2 slots? Hmm...sounds like bad USBs to me, I doubt it's the ram (although it could be). I wish I could understand what you said in your OP, that would really help.
