So we got this really good used computer, everything set up, but when we plug in the Mouse and Keyboard, they will not work. No lights, or reaction upon startup.
We attempted fidgeting with it, but to no avail. The previous owner said he was able to get those to work previously (he got a new computer so no longer needed the one he sold.)
Are we missing something? A cable in the wrong place? I havent dealt with that particular part of the computer so I'm unsure of what should be done.

Try using a keyboard or mouse that is known to be working properly.

We tried 2 regular keyboards (both work, tested with the computer we already have.) and then a USB Keyboard, it is showing no connection (lights) or response.
Same goes for the mouse, which is also USB.

I guess the computer is broken. If you want it saved, you should try going to a computer repairman. Otherwise, just buy some other cheap computer.

Look in the BIOS if USB is actually enabled. If no, enable. If yes, reinstall Windows (use PS/2 devices). If it still doesn't work, install the latest drivers and firmware for your BIOS. If it still doesn't work, beat the guy who sold that thing to you.

The caps lock key is 7/16's of an inch away from the A key. Turn it off.
