Installed new Asus M4A78LT-MLE, when windows loads, finds new device drivers keeps locking up, and wireless or PS/2 mouse & keyboard frozen from boot so cant manuever open anything?

There may be several issues which can cause your mouse not to work properly with Microsoft Windows. This document contains the more common solutions that should be followed for best results.
If you are using a USB mouse, disconnect the mouse cable and then reconnect to a different USB port. If the mouse is connected to a USB hub, unplug the mouse cable and the connect it to a USB port on the back of the computer.
PS/2 mouse
If you are using a mouse with a PS/2 connection, check the back of the computer to verify that it is plugged into the PS/2 mouse port and not the PS/2 keyboard. If the mouse has worked properly in the past (i.e., this is not a new mouse), turn off the computer, then disconnect and reconnect the mouse.

Wireless mouse

1. Make sure the mouse is receiving power by checking for some indication of power (usually a light). If your mouse has a power switch, it is often located on the bottom side.
2. If the mouse does not appear to be on, replace the batteries.
3. Make sure the wireless receiver is within range and is not blocked by too many objects.
4. Disconnect the wireless USB adapter and try plugging it into a different port.
5. Mouse software or driver conflict Boot into Windows Safe Mode. If the mouse is working in Safe Mode, there is likely a driver or software conflict. To fix this problem, follow the steps below.
   
   1. Open Windows Device Manager.
   2. Expand the mouse (mice) option in Device Manager by clicking the + symbol.
   3. Remove all mice listed by highlighting each device and then pressing the delete key on the keyboard.
   If the mouse still does not work in Normal Windows, follow the basic troubleshooting steps for your version of Windows.
6. Check if a driver has been installed for the mouse. You can check in the Device Manager for this. While Windows may have a standard or default driver for the mouse, installing a driver for your specific mouse may fix the issue. You can check our driver list page to find links to some of the more popular manufacturers' websites to download a driver for the mouse.
   If a driver is installed for the mouse, it is recommended that you check if there is an updated driver for the mouse. Updating the driver may fix issues with a non-functioning mouse.
7. Hardware issues Bad Port
   If the previous solutions did not solve the problem, try another mouse. If that mouse works, try the mouse that is not working with another computer. If multiple mice do not work, the problem is with the mouse port. If you are using the PS/2 or USB port on the back of the computer, the motherboard is likely bad and needs to be replaced.
   Bad Mouse
   If the mouse does not work with more than one computer, the mouse is bad and should be replaced. If you are using a wired mouse, check the mouse wire. If the wire has been partially cut or is frayed, this is likely the cause of the mouse not working. Replace the mouse if this is the case.

Try to find a unlock tab in your wireless keyboard..

Hey there. Your motherboard is most likely faulty and is causing shorts inside the keyboards and mouses. You should get a replacement from your retailer for the motherboard.

Have fun :)

Yes you must install all of the drivers for your mainboard, necessary drivers are Audio, Ethernet and Graphics drivers. Drivers enable those controllers to function.
The drivers can be found on the CD that came with your mainboard.

Take care!

try flashing it using the latest BIOS drivers from the manufacturer's website, place the drivers in a floppy disk, then boot the PC with the floppy inserted to begin the flash process. I'm sure you'll find details on upgrading the BIOS on the manufacturer's website.
good luck

Hi you need to update the bios :-)

the only phenom-II cpu's it supports are the 545 and 550 socket am3 1.01ghz. if you have anything other it will not run. here is complete cpu support list here

Hello fredbeer,

Besides the obvious checking with your device manager, you can download a port test kit HERE. That will be able to test if it's working. The other thing you can do is switch the keyboard into the mouse port and the mouse into the keyboard port. You should get some errors, if not, one of them will work and the other won't. Hopefully, you'll get the keyboard in the mouse port to work, so you know the port is working. Also, if you have any other PS2 devices that you can test it with.

Good Luck and don't forget to leave a rating based on my solution.

Thanks

The buttons on the top (silver) are linked to your "Favorites" folder in Internet Explorer.

The buttons to the right of that are used for your media player (To skip tracks and adjust volumes, play pause etc)

The buttons on the left (from top to bottom) are:

1) My documents folder will open
2) MSN or Windows Live! Messenger will open
3) Your E-Mail will open (whatever your default email program is)
4) Calculator Opens
5) Windows Update will open

Now... In order for these you HAVE to have the drivers installed. If you didn't get a CD with your keyboard, you can download the drivers directly from Microsoft here:

Just fill in the drop-downs and press "Go", it should show you a link the the exact driver you need to install. Once it's been installed you can set up your favorites with the software that it installs.

The first thing to do when you have a hardware problem is always to go to Device Manager :Start>My Computor{left klick on My Computor}>Properties>Hardware>Device Manager.In the drop down,find your device that is giving you problems.Double klick on the device and see what Windows says about it ,whether it needs drivers or has a physical problem.Your USB adaptor seem to be working OK since it is oscillating ,meaning that it is searching for the Keyboard transmission to lock on.This means that you have loaded the correct driver software for the usb device.I suspect that your problem is with the Keyboard power-make sure you have installed the batteries correctly{polarity check}When all is working properly,you should find the keyboard listed under Keyboards in Device Manager.Double klick on it to see if it is working properly.Your USB device should appear under USB Controllers.Regards
