I don't remember it exactly, but it was for a USB Camera
In the bottom right corner a little box pops up saying
"New Hardware Found"
"USB Device"
And seconds later in the middle of the screen
"There are NO devices connected, Please ensure that the item is plugged in"
Needless to say the computer almost took a jump off the 2nd story balcony that day..Let Google know when your dead | Read More >>

The error message I get is audible. When Rogers Cable is down, I call Tech Support, and they have a recorded message directing me to go to their site for assistance.
Umm, if they were up, I could go to their site, in which case I wouldn't be on the phone because they're not up!!
BTW, nice one, TC.

The Dude
I believe this happens in BIOS when an error occurs. The purpose is to let the user know that an error exists, and let him/her continue. For ex, when I start my old pc, it says "SMART has detected that HDD my fail...please backup. Press F1 to continue". So, basically, if any error occurs, then press F1.
There is an error in HDD->Display error to user->Give a chance to continue anyhow by pressing F1.
No keyboard was found->Display error to user->Give a chance to continue anyhow by pressing F1.
bad programming. I guess.

I have a USB keyboard, plugged into a USB-to-PS2 converter, then plugged into a cheapo KVM. The bios fails to see the keyboard, and gives me the error.
Funniest part is that I actuall have to press F1 and the PC boots up normally !
