• You are running a Windows Vista-based computer that has an NVIDIA 680i motherboard installed.
• You plug a USB keyboard into a USB port on the NVIDIA 680i motherboard.
• You restart the computer.

In this scenario, the keyboard does not work. Additionally, a yellow exclamation mark (!) appears next to the USB device in Device Manager.

If you disconnect and then reconnect the keyboard while Windows Vista is running, the keyboard begins to work. However, this problem occurs again after you restart the computer.
