I've have tried about everything possible at this point: I use onboard audio, so no -- nVidia chipset for the NIC, audio and USB, all are ON. USB works just great, until the installer screen loads -- all I can do consistently is Ctrl-Alt-Del to reboot, no other keypresses generate any signal. In fact, I just tried with a PS/2 keyboard, and I've used those with FreeBSD forever, and _never_ had a problem. Same behavior in this case, no keypresses work except for Ctrl-Alt-Del. I've cleared the CMOS and meticulously gone through every setting, nothing I've found works so far. I just dl'ed the i386 iso, just to test, but I've run out of blank media for the immediate time being, so I'll have another go at it tomorrow. Does anyone know of any way to get past this installer screen without a working keyboard? Or is there another installation method I could attempt? Thanks again.
