If you messed with the Bios and now you are hanging during boot there could be several reasons why, you are now overclocking your mem or CPU or possible changed the boot order. I would recommend resetting the bios to the default settings.

Hi,
Do you get any beeps after you try to start your PC? If so describe them!
Are the fans, CPU and power supply, running?
Are all lights working, power, HD, CD/DVD?

Hi,
Try going to "Device Manager' and uninstall both the mouse and your keyboard. then reboot, windows will reinstall them on reboot.
If that fails Sometimes, some of the windows protected files can be lost or changed. To detect any problems run the program “System File Checker” (SFC). Before you run it you should purge your PC’s cache:-
Go to “START”
Click “RUN”
Type or “copy and paste”.. sfc.exe /purgecache
Note:- the space after “exe”.
The “purgecache” in this command will empty the cache before you run the file checker. You should always purge the cache before scanning with the System File Checker (SFC). That way, you can be sure that system files are copied from your Windows installation media, and are not infected with malware or corrupted. After the cache has been purged, run System File Checker.
Go to “START”
Click “RUN”
Type or “copy and paste”… sfc.exe /scannow
Note:- the space after “exe”. You may be required to use your installation disk.
This could take a long time to complete, when finished, reboot and see if the problem still exists.

Have you tried "Safe Mode" to see if they work there?
If they do, you can do a "System Restore" to a time before you deleted the files.
Are they USB or PS/2?
Adamsappleone 2 Posting Whiz
When you get to the login screen, is there a mouse pointer?
If not, then it's not being detected, so the drivers did not load.
The fact that you did get in to Safe Mode means that the keyboard is working at the hardware level and again the drivers most likely did not load.
Check in the BIOS and make sure they are both enabled.
Have you tried using another port for the mouse?
Have you also tried using another keyboard and mouse?

I am having the exact same issue. I have tried the filter keys suggestion from another thread, I have double checked through Bios, I have purchased a new keyboard, different ports, all to no avail. Keyboard loads in Bios, stops working until XP fully loaded. So, I have no keyboard for things like DOS commands to reformat the HDD, operate in 'Safe Mode', etc...
Keyboard is USB
Mouse is USB
XP, OS
Desktop
What is going on?

Hi,
It is going to be a bit hard to repair the PC without a mouse or keyboard. The fact that you have been able to get into safe mode, tell me that the keyboard is working before windows loads (pressing f8).
Therefore the best I can think of is to do a windows repair from your installation CD. If you don't know how, Google it, there are many good sites showing you how.
Hi msails 1,
As you can use your mouse and keyboard in windows, you can try a system file check.
Sometimes, some of the windows protected files can be lost or changed. To detect any problems run the program “System File Checker” (SFC). Before you run it you should purge your PC’s cache:-
Go to “START”
Click “RUN”

msalis1,
If you still have problems, start a new thread for you troubles.

As I see you already tried the Safe mode. So try to boot from the last working configuration from the same menu.

Hi,
You will need a Windows XP disk to repair your PC, if you do not have one you will need to buy a new one or maybe upgrade to 7.

ok, are they usb or ps/2 devices ,if ps/2 then you maybe having an issue with the connection[on the motherboard ] on the back of the computer tower ,maybe try a usb keyboard if it not usb allready ,if it usb device try changing the plug to another usb slot ,and no you cant connect the laptop to the computer to use its keyboard !

Hi,
Before we can offer any assistance, we need a bit more information.
What boot disc did your Mate make for you, was it a copy of his Windows installation disc? If so did you use his product key?
Please supply more details about your PC and operating system..

Just do a google for ATI Catalyst, download the Catalyst drivers from ati.amd.com.
EDIT: Here is a link

Choose your OS and then Radeon and your series of card.

Did you buy new computer, if you buy you can read on the box of the motherboard name of motherboard and use it to find driver for it, graphic card may be ATI or Nvidia you can read that too and easy download it...
