I think something has gone wrong with your ability to write proper sentences too If no keyboards, mice, etc work in the motherboard's PS2 or USB ports, something has either gone wrong on the Bios end of things, the OS has gone insane, or the motherboard has decided to let those ports crap out. The latter of these is the most likely scenario imo.
He doesn't have a keyboard, what do you expect? Is it just one USB port that died or all of them? I tried searching Google about this and found a few similar cases, but no solution to the problem. They may have just flat-out died. In that case, you need a new motherboard.
Check the USB ports with other, simple USB devices (jumpdrives or such). Otherwise, sounds like an OS problem? Or your mobo has crapped out...
yea it is the ps2 and both usb ports, i tried usb hub it didnt work, i cant get into bios to set boot from cd so i can reinstall i should just disconnect the hds first and let auto detect take over shud i
you can attempt a clear CMOS to make it default on the settings. Most bios have default boot order as floppy, cd, Hdd. But if the ports are shot then this is only going to make things worse
check to see if the pins are physically bent and shorting each other out on the mouse and keyboard ports. I think its a good idea like the other guy said about clearing the CMOS... check all the wiring to see that there are no shorts on the mobo or anything. Unplug the power plug from your psu and try again. I dunno anythings wortha try and sometimes random stupid things work.
