Problem recognizing mouse/keyboard

[phldbr]

I just got a new motherboard for my pc. I had a P6N SLI Platinum and switched over to asus p5q deluxe.
Everything went smoothly except that when the hard drive boots into vista it does not recognize the mouse or keyboard. But if I boot into the express gate the mouse and keyboard work fine.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Are you using Vista Lite? Have you tried using other USB ports?

No I am using vista ultimate 64bit.
I didn't format the drive or anything... Do I have to?
