Help eith clean Windows 2000 install, mouse keyboard prb

[Guest_imported]

Hi, I just installed Windows 2000 because of some problems i had with the upgraded version, so i reinstalled clean (old data gone) and when i now im having a new problem. When i turn it on the first time, i get to the control alt delete screen to login but the mouse and keyboard dont work! I have no cursor, and hitting any keys (even caps or numlock) doesn't do anything. So i shut the pc off and when i turn it back on, poof, its just like normal, i have a mouse and keys working. But, next time i restart, it will be not working again until i reboot yet again, so basically every other time i boot up these don't work, and its getting me mad!
I have done all service packs, and windows can't find any better drivers for this stuff. Do you tech guys know why this is happening?
Thanks,
Mila

Are the keyboard and mouse USB if so look into the bios and make sure that plug and play os is selected. could be your rpoblem. Hope this helps Thanks
