I bought a used comp today from for around 20 dollars. It's a gateway, but i'm not sure of the brand. It's a small form factor, about 5 inches high, a foot wide and a foot long. It's got two small PCI ports, although they are really little and I don't think I've ever seen them before. Anyway, to my question. It's got 6 USB ports and a VGA out. What the hell?
I went out and bought a USB mouse and keyboard. When I start it, it boots perfectly into the bios (where the mouse and keyboard are both detected) followed by Windows 98. However, once it gets this far it gives me a message saying that windows did not detect a mouse. God. I hit enter on the keyboard to no prevail at the damn text box, it's not detecting the keyboard either. So I'm stuck looking at a warning box, unable to do anything at all. Any ideas as to what to do?
Plus, any ideas what's up with the PCI ports on this thing? Oh, it's a GateWay FlexATXSTC Bro.
Thanks!
