Keyboard does not respond during boot

tepidohare
My computer does not respond to keyboard input during boot. It responds before boot (during the POST and in the CMOS setup menu). It responds after, once Windows starts. But not in between (in the Windows boot menu, or when prompted to press a key for CD boot).

PC Build

tool_462
Does everything look compatible for a PC build out of this list of components? Got two of these off eBay for 45 bucks each Originally was going to go with one 6800GT but for 105 bucks shipped, an SLi setup is too cool not to have in my Antec SuperLanboy with heavy UV mods.

Kilus
I just bought a Logitech QuickCam IM and installed all the software on my laptop. Then I start getting Blue Screens of death. It keeps telling me to install the newest Drivers,(which I have) or dumb the soundcard down, (which I have also).

Looking for old 3DFX tools software for my Voodoo3

SubGum
I just threw in my ghetto Voodoo3 card so I can play Final Fantasy VII after forever, found the best 3rd party drivers for WinXP, but can't seem to find the 3DFX tools so I can tweak the setting. Used to use something I think was called 3DFX Underground Tools that let me overclock and everything.

Keyboard Problems

Kestrel
Whenever I try to type some certain letters, it will add more. Like when I try to type E it will generally type WE. A few other keys are like this as well. Any suggestions? And yes, I already tried cleaning out the keyboard.

I wasn't sure where to put this topic so if it's in the wrong place, I'm sorry. So here's the problem. I was using the Add or Remove Programs thing because I was trying to delete something but I accidently deleted the wrong thing.
