    Exclamation Can't boot up Windows Xp beacause of Keyboard

    I have an ABIT AB9, recently i turned on my computer and the light turned on and i got the usual screen asking me to press 'del' to go into uguru. I pressed 'esc' so i could just get into windows, but the a screen came up and asked me to 'start windows normally', in 'safe mode', or 'safe mode withnetworkng' etc. But i couldn't move because my keyboard had turned.
    I tried a Ps2 port but that didn't work altogether.
    Please help im going to school soon and will need internet.!!!
    Thank you
    Oh and the driver recovery doesn't work when i put it in!

    Its ok now, i fixed it. I put in an old keyboard into the ps/2 port and it worked fine. It must be because the keyboard is usb and it thought it didn't need it in the boot process, so it didn't turn it on !
    Thanks anyway tho !
