The other keyboard and mouse were the stock dell mouse and keyboard, both USB. I was going to try a USB converter for each to put them in the mouse and keyboard plugs in the back. What I don't get is if it was a "outdated" driver for both, why would it work for a year and a half without any equipment changes? I'm going to try the driver update tonight anyway, and will basically update drivers for everything (mouse, chipset, keyboard, LAN, etc.). I just hope it isn't a hardware issue with the motherboard and was wondering if anyone else has seen the same thing. For 3 weeks, it would freeze occasionally, now it is after a minute or two every time.
