Search the Logitech site, for information about your product.
By not providing the exact model number and name of the product(s),
it is pretty hard to give any details to you.

Borrow a corded keyboard and get into the BIOS.
You need to either turn on the USB keyboard/mouse options or look for
something like Legacy USB keyboard and turn that on. Some older
motherboards do not have built in USB keyboard functions and have to load
special USB keyboard drivers that are supplied by the keyboard manufacturer.

With out knowing the model of keyboard/mouse and motherboard people here
won't be able to get more specific with a fix.

Plug it into the PS2 port instead of the USB port.

Will this work with a keyboard/mouse combo receiver that plugs into the
USB port?

Most USB keyboards come with a PS2 adapter...

Let me be a bit more specific.

I have a Microsoft wireless mouse and keyboard set that has one
receiver which transfers data to the computer via one USB connector.
Will using a PS2 connector in either the keyboard or mouse port of the
motherboard make both of my wireless devices work?

Logitech should have info on their 'site, maybe in their
forum, about whether a USB set will work on PS2.

Some will and some won't.

If a set uses only one USB plug, it definitely won't work
over PS2 as a set. I suppose there's some slight chance it
would work for the type of device port it were plugged into
(whether the kbd or mouse PS2 port) but I doubt it.

Temporarily try another keyboard, or try that keyboard on
another system. Try a new set of batteries in it and try
using the link buttons on the wireless receiver and
keyboard. You have left out a lot of info about whether it
works at all in any situation and even what model of
keyboard mouse set it is.

My Key board is Logitech Cordless Model No . Y-RJ20
OS WINXP Pro
I can now get in BIOS setup but cannot select booting options like SAFE
Boot.
Where in the BIOS can I find USB enable setting.
Thanks
