Slight problem there is... how would I start the control panel if I have no keyboard or mouse.

Kinda answering my own question here, I guess... Xpadder!

Ok, it seems this is the case, and that unplugging every other USB device temporarily fixes this issue. Anyone have any ideas how to properly fix it? Obviously, unplugging the keyboard and mouse isn't ideal!

Ok, just an update... It seems that when I unplug the UPS, it's all fine. For some reason, it looks like it's trying to configure the UPS as a game controller!
