Hello!
I have an Asus T2-PH1 Barebone system. The problem started right after I bought it, but it was not serious. Sometimes the keyboard was switched off after turning on the machine but after a restart everithing was okay. This happened two or three times in a month.
But now, the problem got serios: the keyboard stays switced on only once during 5 reboots.
When I turn on the machine, the LEDs of the keyboard turn on, and the keyboard is useable for around 30 seconds. After that, nohing is happening when I press any of the keys (incl. numlock, scrlock, capslock), even if I manage to get into the BIOS (so I can not move anywhere or change anything, ctr+alt+del is not working, etc)!
Somehow I managed to install Linux, and I set it to start automatically, so the start-up menu has not to be used. While it starts, it turns back the keyboard. (Maybe it restarts the keyboard controller?) But when I use Windows, the keyboard stays switced off, and it is not useable even if I disable and re-enable it.
I changed my keyboard 5 times through the years, I also used USB and wireless keyboards, but it did not matter: the problem was the same for every one, so the problem is not with the keyboards. (One interesting thing: when I install a new keyboard, PS/2 or USB, it works fine for a couple of days, and after that the problem returns.) When I connected the keyboards to other machines, they worked fine (I have a couple of computers).
What might be the problem? Do you have any suggession?
Thanks for the help in advance,
Greetings,
Dani
