>Description:
Whenever I attempt to install FreeBSD on my machine, the install process boots up, and displays the initial install menu. But, I cannot do anything on this menu. The cursor does not move (or even blink), I cannot make selections on the menu. In fact, the keyboard does not respond in any way - the Num Lock Caps Lock and Scroll Lock lights don't even turn on when I press those keys.     

I know it is not the CDs as they work fine on other computers. I tried booting from floppy and the same thing happened. It also happened with 4.2 and 4.3 (I haven't tried earlier releases).
>How-To-Repeat:
Boot up install disk on my computer
