Have power to keyboard (lights on) but cannot type anything. Have
tried two spare keyboards but same result.
Thanks for help
Do the keyboards work on OTHER computers? IF so, your problem is
HARDWARE related, and NOT related to the OS. In that case.....
Ask elsewhere
Gurney,
Actually - if the keyboard(s) *do* work on other computers (as you state)
and not on this particular computer *in Windows XP normal mode* - it could
very well be an issue of the hardware in relation to the particular
installation of Windows XP. (Drivers, etc.) We do not have enough
information yet - as far as I see...
Only if the keyboards *do not* work on other computers and/or the keyboards
also do not work before Windows XP boots (such as to get in and utilize the
system BIOS or to select Safe/Normal mode, etc) - then it is strictly a
hardware issue and probably does not belong in this newsgroup.
rogeepete,
Please answer in the newsgroup...
- Are these keyboards USB or PS/2? (or something else?)
- Can you use the keyboard(s) to get into the System BIOS at boot-up (before
Windows XP starts)?
- Can you use the keyboard(s) in Windows XP Safe Mode?
