While setting a AS41000 5/300, 128MB, Abios 5.24 there were situation when, after a reboot, sometimes during normal work, the console and mouse did not accept user input, e.g. were 'dead'. After a reboot this symptom was gone. The event log showed an entry with timeout for the keyboard. This entry lists the i8042prt as 'culprit'. Any ideas what went wrong here? Or what we can do to fix this? These systems go to a big fair an the Microsoft booth to demo DEC Cluster for NT with SQL, and they should/must work! thanks Thomas

After a reboot this symptom was gone. A little more info please. What NT version and what if any service packs have been applied? Is it a MP or UP? >>The event log showed an entry with timeout for the keyboard. This entry lists >>the i8042prt as 'culprit'. >> >>Any ideas what went wrong here? Or what we can do to fix this?

Is there more than one system and if so, is it happening only on one system or on more than one system? | |||||

Well the systems run NTserver V4.0 with SP2 applied. They are both UP systems. We have now changed the IO board and things seem to be fine (at least the customer tells me so!) thomas | |||||
