Keyboard and Mouse Drivers Blocked

[Malcolm Waterman]

I tried running Ubuntu Linux 9.10 on my computer directly from the CD, without installing, and when it had finished loading neither the keyboard nor the mouse would work. I got a message saying that restricted drivers had been blocked. I can't press what I think to be the unblock command because both the keyboard and mouse had been blocked.

Ubuntu does work properly when it is put into a different computer. I was wondering if vital drivers for the working of the mouse and keyboard could have been blocked by Ubuntu.

Problem's solved. Incorrectly set setting in BIOS. Needed to be set to Legacy USB support.
