That's odd. How third-party cheap-brand is your keyboard?
It's a Logitech G110 and it worked during the initial install

Odd that your motherboard doesn't have an IDE channel on it. Granted, it might be down to ONE connector, but that should support two devices (master and slave). But I can certainly understand if you want additional devices past those.
Many high end performance motherboards no longer have support for IDE, instead it's many flavours of SATA, I've got 11, six at 6Gb/s, 4 at 3Gb/s and one mSATA which kills a 3Gb/s if I plug something in there
