Make sure you dont have any keys that are stuck and if thats not it try another keyboard and see if that works.

Make sure you have it plugged into the right port (ps/2) and not the mouse port. Also make sure it is in good and tight. if that doesnt work borrow another keyboard and try it (known good one) If that doesnt work I would say you have a messed up keyboard port http://www.sysopt.com/forum/frown.gif

Do you have one of those crappy HP Pavillion computers? Some of them do not recognize the keyboard at random during startup. I noticed that the computer lights flash for a split second on startup when its going to do that. Just shut it off for 30 sec and turn it back on

Either that or you may have bent a pin in the connector. If that happened, your SOL.
