Hello All, Just finished building my first computer and have been having a frustrating time trying to install windows 7. I have the B150 4K gaming motherboard. I am attempting to install windows 7 through an optical drive. However, keyboard stops working during installations. The setup guide tells me to turn on ps/2 simulator under USB configuration but my BIOS does not have that option. Any help would be greatly appreciated..

According to your MB manual, pg41 BIOS > > Advanced > USB Configuration > PS/2 Simulator If that option is not where it is said to be, all I can offer is to locate and use a bone simple PS/2 KB. It's been documented many many times that gaming type keyboards cause this issue while trying to set up a new ssystem. Most likely due to them having their own processor and memory inside. < id="kpm_plugin" ="application/x-KPMPlugin">

And now would be as good as time as any to update your BIOS to the latest available. < id="kpm_plugin" ="application/x-KPMPlugin">

You might if you haven't already tried plug your KB into a _native_ USB 2.0 port and attempt again. < id="kpm_plugin" ="application/x-KPMPlugin">

Greetings, this is ASRock Technical Supports Department. We tested B150 gaming K4 BIOS P1.30, the PS/2 simulator exist in BIOS properly. Please find the item in Advanced -> USB Configuration.  In addition, you can use our USB patcher to build a USB-usable image for Windows 7 on 100 series platform. http://www.asrock.com/microsite/Win7Install/ Thank you for your patience. If any, please feel free to contact us! Kindest Regards, ASRock TSD |

" rel="nofollow - Hello, I recently put together a new Computer. Can't install Windows because when you run the OS stops working keyboard and mouse. What you need to do to resolve this problem? The version of the BIOS "P3.10", the model name of the motherboard "AB350M-HDV/M/ASRK".
Thanks in advance! |

| You don't need it. Just patch your Windows 7 ISO file and follow the instructions from the link to install from USB drive. Then boot from the drive. |
