I did a recent repair install on my Satellite 3005-S307 in which it gave me
an error message on finding some file called kbfiltr.sys.

I had a system which was crashing on execution of any second command (IE I
could go into Notepad but as soon as I tried to type anything or I could go
into Photoshop but as soon aas I treid to highlight any file it would crash)

It has left a system which let me use the keyboard while it was repairing to
enter the key and the enter button but during install reboot crashed on
entering the administrator password!! I suspect that they system was
actually crashed at that stage as I dont think the cursor would move when I
touched the touchpad

Anyway on reboot it still gives an error message on a file called
DRI_KBFiltr which it says it cannot find. And when I reboot it STILL crashed
as soon as I try to use the keyboard. (all I was doing was to try to delete
the half to a whole gig swap file on a fullish C drive and put it solely on
the D drive, where there seems to have been one anyway). Norton Speedisk was
running in the background and it still is, (only the mouse dursor is crashed
as far as I can see)
 
Many thanks Ralph, sorry for posting in wrong newsgroup but nobody knew in
the xp newsgroup and I did actually forget to mention that I am using XP Pro
