P
Puzzled
Most strange. Using Windows XP, I installed Vista in its own partition.
That went well, so now I have multi-boot. When I tried to use XP I found
the keyboard was not responding (PS/2), mouse was fine. I had THE EXACT
same problem when I had installed Ubuntu Linux, and it disappeared when I
uninstalled Ubuntu.
The keyboard works fine under Vista, so keyboard is OK. I can select an
item in multi-boot menu and CAPS and Num Lock appear to work as light goes
on. However, as soon as I get to the welcome screen I cannot enter my
password. Caps and Num keys do nothing.
I unplugged keyboard, booted and it recognized keyboard was not present.
Re-inserted keyboard, got to Welcome screen, in XP, and... nothing.
I've uninstalled driver, added device, it found the keyboard, re-installed
driver... rebooted, same problem
I'm using a usb keyboard now, but what's the problem? What's the
connection between Vista/Ubuntu and XP and the keyboard? How do I fix it?
Thanks for any help
