Mouse/Keyboard Doesn't Work Really Weird Problem

Heyas,

I have a really weird issue. The problem is when startup my PC and windows loads the mouse and keyboard which both have p2/s connections they don't work. However there are details to this:

The Keyboard works in the Bios.
The Mouse works when I windows 7 is starting up i.e. before I get the login screen.

When I plug an usb keyboard and mouse all its fine by the p2/s ones don't work in windows.

I have reimaged by pc several times still no success.

Any ideas?

Do you find any errors in Device Manager?

I would try uninstalling the drivers for the keyboard and mouse (right-click on them in Device Manager), reboot, and let them reload.
ALso try this, boot to safemode by pressing f8 button when you start your pc. and check if it is working there.

Tried uninstalled via the device manager no luck.

I can't F8 into safe mode using the P2/s keyboard. My usb connected keyboard can though.

Thank you.
Does the keyboard and mouse work fine on other machines?
Did you check for any program that might be intercepting the keyboard and mouse, such as a keylogger program?
Look in device manager - is there an error code for the keyboard driver?
