Out of 10 times, on startup 2 or 3 my USB Keyboard and USB mouse are not activated and I have to reboot several times before they work. In the BIOS advance menu the USB is set to Keyb + Mouse. Anyone has any idea how to handle this annoying problem?
Could be faulty USB connectors on your mobo. Have you tried upgrading (flashing) the bios on your mobo? Upgrading to a new version normally fixes issues like this. To do that, restart your computer and take note of your mobo manufacturer name on top right corner after it boots. Then go to thier website (do a search for them if you cannot find it) and flash your BIOS. Then after its done flashing, take out your USB devices. Power on. boot up, go into windows, and reseat the USB devices after Windows loads. they should be automatically identified and working. Also try www.windowsupdate.com and update your windoze.
