Hello everyone,
I just bought a license key for Windows 7 Ultimate from lalicence.fr, so I uninstalled the old operating system and installed the new one, and when I restart the computer to finalize the installation, I can't use the keyboard and mouse to move past the window that asks for the language choice and click on next.
I've really tried a lot of manipulations, removed the motherboard battery, unplugged the power supply, pressed the power button on the computer for 30 seconds with the power supply unplugged, created a bootable USB drive with the Windows ISO on it to install via the BIOS
...
It's a custom-built PC, so if you need to know anything, feel free to ask.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
If you're using the keyboard and mouse via USB, make sure they're not connected to blue USB ports (3.0) > use black USB ports (2.0)
Otherwise, what's the point of installing full Win7?
Catch you later

That was it, I plugged an old mouse into a black USB port and it works. Thank you very much, I didn't think it would be that obvious.
Windows 7 because I'm more comfortable with it and I find the interface more practical. But indeed the question is relevant, do you advise me to get a refund and switch to a more recent Windows? And which one?
Thanks again.

You're welcome!
It's a "classic" > USB 3.0 drivers are not loaded with Win 7
> First thing to do: install the Win 7 updates > there are more than 180...
> Second thing to do: update the drivers
and all of this takes quite a bit of time...
Otherwise, Win 7 has not been updated since January 2020 (except maybe the pro and ultimate versions until the end of the year...)
> Win 10 was released in July 2015 and is more appropriate.

First of all, thank you for paying attention to my issue.
I bought a keyboard and a mouse "the g lab" at Micromania for cheap and they worked very well under the old operating system.
Best regards
