Ahhhhhhhh.......
The O/P didn't state specifically if he/she was using the keyboard alone or in parallel...good point...
However (we've been down this road before somewhere), there should be a setting in BIOS called something like 'Halt on All Disk/Keyboard' errors or something like that and it can usually be shut off. Should take care of the freezing problem. But since the keyboard hasn't been recognized, it still won't work
