Key board and mouse dont work

sometimes a key/button on keyboard or mouse gets stuck (pressed), you restore it to original position ( and restart) If it is not solved then try re-installing the drivers I had the same problem.

When the computer is turned on should the mouse and key board come on

YesI don't know anything further to tell you,......but Yes.Hmmm, how about this?You press the Power On Button.This plastic assembly then presses against the Power On switch, located inside it.The Power On switch is a Momentary Contact Switch.It only closes for about 1 second.Closing the Power On switch activates a Soft Power On circuit.The Soft Power On circuit uses the 5 Volt Standby power.[The Power Supply always has 5 Volts present, when it is plugged into power. This is the 5 Volt Standby Power ]Activating the Soft Power On circuit, 'excites' the Power Supply, and turns it on. (Sounds like a steamy novel)The first chipset to receive power is the BIOS chipset.The Basic Input/Output System program (BIOS) is initialized.BIOS looks to see what DEVICES are connected, does a Ram Memory count, turns the Processor on; and hands the computer over to the Operating System. (In this case a version of Windows)-> BIOS LOOKS TO SEE WHAT DEVICES ARE CONNECTEDThis means power is sent to the Keyboard to check it,then power is sent to the Mouse to check it.Also power is sent to all of the connected devices. [ BIOS:"Okay, what we got here?.........Hmmm, the Keyboard.Yep, sent power to it, and it works.......Okay, go on........What's this? Oh, yeah. A Mouse. Power to it reveals it works.Time to go onto to any other devices, that might be connected.I gotta' get this wrapped up. Supposed to pick up eggs, and bread before I get home; or the Ol' lady's gonna' be mad." ]For additional questions please post in a Comment.Regards,joecoolvette[Chip and Chipset are slang terms for I.C.Integrated Circuit,http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_Circuithttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOShttp://computer.howstuffworks.com/

Installing Ubuntu Server on Dell Dimension 2400?

Step 1: The Ubuntu Linux operating system is available either with or without a desktop environment. The version with the desktop environment is meant for personal use and includes word processing, email and graphic editing software. The version without the desktop environment is called "Ubuntu Server." The server version does not come with any graphical software or productivity software. There are three different desktop environments available for the Ubuntu operating system. The default is the Gnome desktop. The other two are the KDE and the XFCE desktop environments. Log into the server. Type the command "sudo apt-get update" to update the list of software packages available. Type the command "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" to install the Gnome desktop. Type the command "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop" to install the XFCE desktop. Type the command "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" to install the KDE desktop. Type the command "sudo reboot" to reboot the server. Ubuntu Linux Tutorials,Howtos,Tips & News http://www.ubuntugeek.com/install-gui-in-ubuntu-server.html
