Every time I start up my computer my keyboard won't work, i tried plugging my usb keyboard to another usb plug then after that my keyboard works but when I start up my computer again, the same thing hapens, I always have to change the plug, after I used all the plugs my keyboard doesn't work in any usb plugs anymore, I dunno which is broken, my keyboard or my usb ports.
It could be either, by the sound of things. There is an easy way to determine which is defective: Turn your computer off. Select a USB port and hook your keyboard up to it. Now Turn on your computer. If the keyboard works, well problem solved. If not, then turn your computer back off. Take any other device with a USB adapter, cable, jack, ect. and plug it into the SAME USB port you previously have your keyboard in. If the device works, then the keyboard is broken. A simple fix (that most people would choose) is just to buy a new keyboard in this case. You can get one at your local computer store for around $10 for a basic one. In the mean time you can use the On-Screen Keyboard which any windows computer has if you do a search (found in different locations depending on Operating System). This is assuming your keyboard IS broken. If the previous experiment didn't render your keyboard broken, then ask a friend who knows about computers to check out your BIOS. If he/she is a computer person, they know what BIOS is. The reason I say a friend is because in all honesty, most computer repair services waaaay over-charge for the work they do. Some names come to mind (especially the ones that rhyme with Peek Quad). Non-the-less, If you get your BIOS looked at and your friend can't fix it, it may possibly be your motherboard. Hope it's not your motherboard, for that is not a cheap piece of equipment in terms of the average buyer. If it is your mother board, ask for more help, and I will provide. Hope this helps and best of luck.
This sounds like your keyboard not working, have you tried another keyboard in your computer or tried the keyboard in another computer, if they keyboard works in another computer fine then its your usb slots.
