Topic: [SOLVED] Keyboard not working at Keymap entry

Keyboard was working fine at menu entry for boot options, stopped functioning at keymap entry point.

Workaround, attached a USB keyboard, was able to then fully run Gparted.

Re: [SOLVED] Keyboard not working at Keymap entry

UPDATE: The keyboard I used (dell rt7d50) had a "very" strange issue, holding down caps lock key.. turned my system off. Was moving the keyboard in the middle of a partition update, shut down my laptop. You can imagine what this did to the poor hard drive (lost both my linux and windows boot) thank goodness i had no really important data. Don't use this keyboard! Note: I have seen the earlier post about turning off USB support in bios. Unfortunately that did not apply to my system as the crappy bios had about 3 menu options, none of the to turn off usb support. And I am not running a 64 bit proccessor
