Or something like that as it can vary from BIOS to BIOS. This should help you to use a USB keyboard.

Also since your keyboard works pre-boot, press F8 repeatedly and enter Safe Mode.

Boot in Safe Mode and see if the keyboard works there. If it does you have a driver clash in Normal Mode. Check in Device Manager to see if the keyboard driver gives you a clue as to the problem.

Mind you, it would be helpful if you told us what make and model of computer you have.

Try and get into Safe Mode by repeatedly pressing F8

Disable and re-enable Plug and Play services:

1. Click "Start"->"Run", type "services.msc" (without quotation marks) in the open box and click "OK".

2. Double click the service "Plug and Play".

3. Click on the "General" tab; make sure the "Startup Type" is "Automatic".
4. - If the service is started, please click Stop to disable it and restart the computer. Then, re-start the Plug and Play service using the same method. Restart the computer again.

- If the service is stopped, please click Start and restart the computer to check the result.

Download and update the Chipset Drivers for your PC.
