Hi, here is my problem: I have a motherboard foxconn rc 4107ma s2 with an ati radeon xpress 200. Last week i installed a nvidia 7300 graphic card, and it was very difficult for me to clean former drivers before installing nvidia's. during exactly a week, the computer was working correctly, but yesterday it crashed. when i started the computer, it sounded a "beep" repetidly and didnt get silence. so i opened the computer, and modified the jumpers of the motherboard (those in which we can read, clean-CMOS and wp-en-476 or something like this). Then I restarted the computer and i could read at first of all the brand, model and memory of my new nvidia card, and after this appeared a screen with foxconn logo in which it give it to me two options. "press tab to show post screen or del to enter setup" unfortunatly i cant press any key, because the keyboard doesnt work. so i need help to active in some way the keyboard or by conecting and disconecting some hardware in motherboard or whatever. thank you
Plug those hardware one by one until you get the answer. by thus, my dell inspiron 6000 laptop works now
The keyboard should work, unless it is a usb keyboard, the drivers have not had chance to load because you are still in basic dos. Try a PS2 keyboard if this is the case.
If you can't use the keyboard, then you will not be able to try a solution, unfortunately.
If you have another keyboard try it so as to elliminate hardware failure, if another wont work, try re-setting the bios again at the 'JBAT1' terminal from pins 1-2 to 2-3 for a few seconds then then back to 1-2.
Only other thing is just check you haven't got the keyboard and mouse in wrong connectors (Sorry!) or the motherboard PS2 connection is faulty.

Hi, sandrew, thank you for answering so fast. My keyboard is not usb, and it doesnt work. another solution?
hello sandrew. i've followed the steps you told me in your answer, but the keyboard is still out. i've even checked it with another keyboard, but this appears not to be the problem. so, i'd very grateful with you if you could give me another alternative solution. thank you, pal.
