Windows XP Installation Issue

S

SV66

I have just built a new system and am trying to install an OEM version of
windows xp on it. The system boots fine and begins to run the xp setup but
when it starts, my usb keyboard quits working. So when it asks a few minutes
later to press enter to continue the installation I cannot. The keyboard
works however before the install starts, i can get to bios and change
settings etc.

1. I have tried multiple keyboards and different usb ports. The motherboard
is dx58so and only has usb ports, no ps/2

2. I have checked to make sure usb is enabled in bios and have updated bios
to most current version.

3. I have called tech support who suggested that usb drivers are not up to
date and said I needed to take it in to local computer store which said they
wanted 130 dollars to troubleshoot and install xp.

If anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate any help I can get.

Is the OEM Version of WinXP tied to one of the components you used in
building your PC ? If not, then it won't work.
