Plug keybord/mouse into Usb on case.

well, i have an issue with that... the cords aren't long enough to
reach the case with the way the desk is set up.... and the desk is
built specifically for this space. buying usb extensions would seem
like the same thing.
is there any particular reason why this needs to be done?

i know the standard answer for usb is always to plug them in as
directly as possible, which makes sense, but why would it detect them
on a restart, but not on an initial boot?
