What should be my troubleshooting course of action with two hardwired USB's and devices that need to be reinserted at every boot up? It's a mouse and a midi keyboard all running on a P4/XP machine. Thanks!

Hi,

Start with the BIOS settings.
If there's nothing there, then update your BIOS.
If that doesn't help, then upgrade your USB drivers.

Thats a start, anyway.
Cheers,Tim.

Hi,
you shouldn't need a bios update on a board tat new, but you may not have usb keyboard support enabled in the bios. Try to pay attention to the numlock light. If it blinks on than goes out, you may need to update the drivers for the usb hub.If it never comes on I am betting it's the bios.
