For starters it will be awfully hard to get into your BIOS since that also
requires using the keyboard. Try borrowing a keyboard that works on another
computer to see if you have a dead or defective keyboard. When it says
press F1, have you done that and nothing happens? Are you sure that the
keyboard is plugged into the right port? Is it a serial or PS/2 plug? If it
isn't the keyboard (i.e. a working keyboard from another computer won't work
on your machine either), you may have a dead port on the mobo.
I have obtained a 586/120 Mhz CPU and it does not complete the start-up
process. After reading the RAM, it shows the message "keyboard error" press
F1...
Well, if the keyboard does not read (no beeps, no lights) how can I "press"
F1 to do anything?
I have unplugged everything and re-plugged everything several times to no
avail. Same "message".
Suggestions?
