I have used computer and when I turn it on the keyboard lights go crazy. Number lock, Cap lock, Scroll lock lights keep flashing off and on. Is the mother board bad?

Does this computer POST? ...and stop waiting for keyboard, or just black screen? ...and are there any beep sequences heard?

The computer goes though it booting up and then message about the ps/2 mouse is not found appears. and thats as far as it goes. everything thing else is fine. Keyboard will not work when lights start flashing.

Hi coolbalan.
I've tried everything. changed hard drive, mouse, keyboard, till the same.
Screen is fine, windows 98 comes up on the screen, makes sounds reading hard drive, light flash, keyboard froze. Error says, no mouse attached and there's no beeps, no sound. But when it starts, It detects a mouse! This belongs to a friend, trying fix it.
