Hey everyone,
I am using a Dell Dimension e520 desktop which comes with no ps2 ports. I downloaded and installed the wrong usb drivers when i was trying to get windows to recognize my usb flash drive. Anyway, once windows restarted after driver installation I lost functioning of and usb ports, including mouse and keyboard. My keyboard does work in BIOS though, so I tried everything in there I could. Also tried safe mode, but loses keyboard and mouse, reinstalling windows - it requires mouse or keyboard input, and using another hard drive to access the old one, but for some reason my windows 7 sata HDD crashes at the black windows login when i try booting. I have also reset CMOS to no avail. Once windows starts the mouse and keyboard power off. I do have my recovery cd and can get into the recovery console with keyboard function. I disabled the wrong AMD usb drivers, but still nothing worked. I tried disabling several other USB related items under listsvc but nothing gave me keyboard or mouse function. The only two things I can think of are to buy a PCI-usb card and plug in there and hope it works, or find a friends computer and boot with old HDD as slave drive and try reinstalling old drivers that way. Anyone else have any ideas? Thanks in advance
