PC gets stuck at this screen everytime I try to boot. On the bottom it says 'CMOS Settings Wrong, Keyboard not found, Mouse not found'. Keyboard doesn't function at all, although the keyboard is fine. Here are the things I have done so far:

1. Changed the keyboard, mouse.
2. Performed a CMOS reset (using jumper pin)
3. Unplugged and re-inserted the processor, ram and HDD.
4. Changed the battery of motherboard.

I have seen the other threads related to this problem but nothing worked.

My motherboard is foxconn G41MXE.

Many thanks!

Your motherboard is most probably broken.
Last BIOS is from 2011, so this Socket-775 board should be at least 7 years old.
Foxcon boards are not formidable for their quality.
On e*ay, it should cost about $40 (refurbished or used), if you want to stay with it, but for the same money you can buy complete used PCs with newer parts, so really think about upgrading.

Well, it's a very old piece to be honest. I know I should just get something new. Still I would like to be able to fix it. Thanks for your response!
