hello.

I have an amd duron 750 with damaged onboard plugs for
keyboard and mouse. due to this, i am using a $40 device
for keyboard + mouse -> usb port. my bios is also set to=20
emulate this as if it were the onboard keyboard. setup for
some reason comes up with an error when i press the=20
down cursor on my keyboard.  it loses the 'face' of the setup
menu, and drops back to what seems like the underlying
command prompt system. with an error about a bad keystroke.

any idea's? or do i just disable keyboard emulation?
