I created an installation media DVD using the information on Dave's "Create Official Windows 8.1 Installation Media (DVD or USB)[/url]" recent tip. Things went well until I tested the DVD. While booting my computer's wireless mouse and wireless keyboard work. Once the boot is complete I have no mouse or keyboard to proceed with the installation. Tried a manual USB wired mouse. This did not work either.
I need suggestions on how to proceed.

Hi Tom, and welcome to the DCT Forum. 
The fact that neither your wireless nor wired mouse and keyboard are recognized is a tad unusual. Is it a UEFI machine or an older BIOS machine? Are you certain the mouse and/or keyboard are plugged into USB 2.0 ports and not USB 3.0?
Cheers... Jim

Jim,
So I checked. Even though it is a fairly new machine (one year old) it is NOT a UEFI machine. (Had to do some research on how to tell.) The SWI report for the "Ports" is below. It does indicate USB3 support. Not sure is they are actual USB3 ports.

According to the SIW report, USB 3.0 ports are included with the motherboard. USB 3.0 ports are usually blue, have a look at the back and front USB ports and see if there are any that are blue. Then, make sure the mouse and keyboard are NOT plugged into the blue ports.
Also; are both the Microsoft mouse and keyboard driver and the Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center software up-to-date?
You may also need to go into BIOS and see what settings there are relating to USB, mouse, and keyboard.

OK, of the four on the front, one is blue. One of these four is in the card reader. Of the six USB ports on the back the bottom 4 are blue. Two at the top (where the mouse/keyboard wireless receiver is plugged in are not blue. Why would the USB3 ports not work properly.
I have gone through all the devices under Universal Serial Bus controllers and the drivers are up-to-date. The same for the keyboards and mice devices.
I took a look at the BIOS. Couldn't find anything for mouse and keyboard. Under USB devices;
Legacy USB Support Enabled
XHCI Hand-off Enabled (Haven't a clue what this is. 
)
EHCI Hand-off Disabled (Haven't a clue what this is. )
USB Storage Devices; All set to "Auto"
Moved the mouse/keyboard wireless receiver to a non-blue USB port at the front of the machine. Still, once the machine boots from the recovery DVD I have no mouse or keyboard function.
Thoughts?

These settings in BIOS (XHCI and EHCI) are designed to overcome an operating system's shortcomings regarding USB support and management.
For example: XHCI (Extensible Host Controller Interface) is Intel's USB 3.0 controller (driver). The controller was introduced by Intel for USB 3.0 enabled machines running operating systems without native USB 3.0 support (which includes Windows 7). Native USB 3.0 support was introduced in Windows 8.
Not sure if these settings have anything to do with the issue or not but, considering a fresh install means you are working outside of an existing OS and relying solely on BIOS, it may well be the case.
I would try changing those settings in BIOS to see if they make any difference. First; try setting EHCI Hand-off to Enabled. If that doesn't work, try setting both to Disabled.
Let us know how you get on.
