That type of behavoir is really annoying.
I presume you've tried reseating the USB cable. Have you tried a different
USB port? Do you have a port that's attached to a different daughter card
in case the one you're using has gone wonky?
Do you have a USB->PS2 adapter to try?
Do you have a different keyboard to try?
Any changes to the BIOS?
Does the keyboard work without problems once you boot an OS?
ciao,
