My computer just randomly stopped recognizing all keyboards. I've tried 3 different ones and no success. I've reset the cmos and that didn't do anything, now I'm stuck on the post screen because it can't continue without a keyboard. I really have no idea what to do, they're all usb keyboards. I haven't tried a ps2 keyboard, they're pretty hard to find in stores nowadays.

On the "Integrated Peripherals" page of your BIOS, you will find items called "OnChip USB Controller", "USB EHCI Controller", and "USB Keyboard Support" - make sure all three are set to "Enabled
