Is there a key switch on the back of the case? If so, make sure it's not
partially turned to the lock position...
Is there anything connected to the "keylock" pins on the motherboard? If so,
disconnect it

Ok, this is a really weird problem. I just installed a new hard drive on

my
Asus A7V266-E mobo and now when I boot up, I get the message "Keyboard is
locked out - Unlock the key" after the POST. Here's the strange part,

when
I lay my PC on its side, I don't get the message and the PC boots up fine.
While the PC is running, if I stand it up again the keyboard stops

working!
What the heck is going on? There were some forums I found on Google that
suggested it could be a problem with grounding but there doesn't seem to

be
anything moving when I move my PC around. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks,
Mitchua
