dimension 5150, keyboard and mouse not communicating with pc

tried booting into safe mode, keyboard works long enough to press f8 while booting but soon as in safe mode keyboard and mouse will not work.

That will teach me to download an update from the dell support site (I must have downloaded the wrong one) don't know what to do, can you help?

    I have a xps200. Bought it in June,2006. My keyboard and mouse died. The tech had me take the computer apart, it took 2 hours. Finally decided it the Mother Board. Mother Board was replaced. Luckily still under warranty. Now my fan quit. They are to replace it in a few days, after a 10 day wait.
